AMP Robotics Corp. has entered into an agreement with 91²Ö¿â Connections, Inc. to equip and operate one of 91²Ö¿â Connectionsâ greenfield, next-generation recycling facilities. Located in Commerce City, Colorado, the facility will be commissioned in early 2026.
The 91²Ö¿â Connections facility will feature an AMP ONEâ¢system and leverage AMP Smart Sortation⢠to optimize processing of up to 62,000 tons of single-stream recycling annually. Through its provision of AMP Smart Sortation, AMP will operate and maintain the system. The facility will be fully integrated with AMPâs industry-leading AI, which will enable the automated sorting of single-stream recycling, extraction of targeted commodities, and production of custom feedstock blends.
âAMP’s innovative design, enabled by its technology, allows the company to offer us a competitive package for achieving our goals in the region,â said Mark Ceresa, Division vice president for 91²Ö¿â Connections. âThe system is flexible to our scale, sorting, and Extended Producer Responsibility compliance needs, and can adapt as our commodity needs and waste stream changes. AMP offers us a unique way to enter this market, by guaranteeing these capabilities on a pay-per-ton contract.â
The AMP ONE system will deliver high recovery rates with guaranteed performance, process certain material streams autonomously, and improve its throughput capacity over time with regular software updates. The system leverages continuous AI material and purity monitoring and sorting to an extent not seen in the industry before, replacing multiple screens to provide unprecedented operational flexibility. This inventive design allows the system to respond to problems, such as detecting jams or drops in performance, and optimize itself in real time.
âWeâve shown a higher level of performance is achievable when the capabilities of AI are built in at the facility level,â said Tim Stuart, chief executive officer of AMP. â91²Ö¿â Connectionsâ adoption of facility-scale sortation is a milestone for the industry. This is a facility that delivers on the true potential of recycling, and we couldnât be more delighted to be doing this with our 91²Ö¿â Connections partners.â
