ZenRobotics

ZenRobotics, a Finnish company established in 2007, was a pioneer in robotic recycling technology. Famed for its innovation, it introduced the ZenRobotics Recycler in 2012, a groundbreaking waste sorting system driven by artificial intelligence. By identifying valuable materials within waste streams, like metal, wood, stone, hard plastics, and cardboard, this technology revolutionized recycling. The Recycler exhibited impressive capabilities, managing bulky items weighing up to 20 kg and processing up to 4000 items hourly.

Unfortunately, financial challenges led to ZenRobotics' bankruptcy in 2021. However, the company found a lifeline when it was acquired by Terex in the same year, ensuring its technology's continued development and impact on sustainable waste management. This journey underscores the dynamic nature of technological ventures and their potential to address pressing global challenges, even in the face of economic setbacks.
