Waste Sorting Robots Market

Waste Sorting Robots Market & Trends Analysis Report by Waste Type (Organic, Plastics, Metal Waste, Chemical, Wood, and Other) an by Industry (Recycling, Plastics, Metal & Minerals, Wood, Food , and Others) Forecast Period (2022-2028)
    Update Available - Forecast 2024-2030   

Published: Jul 2023 | Report Code: OMR2027086 | Category : Advanced Technologies | Delivery Format: /

Waste sorting robots market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 19.6% during the forecast period.  The increasing adoption of automation in numerous industries is propelling market growth. Similarly, the rising focus on proper management of waste along with the increasing demand for rapid waste management procedures to handle the large amount of garbage produced by the people is a major driving force behind the market share of waste sorting robots. According to World Bank data, nearly 2.24 billion tonnes of solid waste was generated globally in 2020, amounting to a daily footprint of 0.8 kg per person. Owing to rapid population growth and urbanization, annual waste generation is expected to rise by 73% from 2020 levels to 3.88 billion tonnes by 2050. Intelligent robotic systems can handle almost any waste stream, and sorting functionality can be redefined for each new market situation, even on a routine basis. The robotic arms are always ready to pick up and rescue manual workers from dusty and filthy workplaces, thereby increasing their demand.   

Segmental Outlook 

The global waste sorting robots market is segmented based on waste type, and industry. Based on waste type the markt is sub-segmented into organic, plastics, metal waste, chemical, wood, and other. On the basis of industry the market is sub-divided into recycling, plastics, metal & minerals, wood, food , and others.  Based on industry, the recycling segment is expected to grow at a signifcant rate, due to the increased opportunities for large actors in the recycling sector, meanwhile, the plastics segment is projected to grow at a considerable rate owing to the higher release of plastic waste from various end-user industries. 

Based on waste type, the food segment is expected to grow at a significant rate. This growth is attributed to the rising concerns over food waste globally. Increasing consumer preference for new types of food and exotic food items, including tropical fruits, premium coffee, and imported products, is expected to complement growth. Increasing trade of food and food ingredients between various countries has led to the development of new supply chains, resulting in increased food waste generated. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, 40% of food is lost or wasted annually in the US, costing an estimated $218 billion or 1.3% of GDP.  Moreover, each year, an estimated one-third of all food produced equivalent to 1.3 billion tonnes worth around $1 trillion ends up rotting in the bins of consumers and retailers or spoiling due to poor transportation and harvesting practices, as per United Nations Sustainable Goals. Hence increasing in food waste by consumers and the inclination of consumers towards the consumption of exotic food items boost the segment growth during the forecast period.

Regional Outlooks

The global waste sorting robots market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East &Africa, and Latin America). The Asia-Pacific region is projected to grow at a considerable rate, owing to the elevated adoption of innovative technology, industrial developments and the increased popularity of automation will lead to demand in distinct sectors in the Asia-Pacific region for waste sorting robots. 

Global Waste Sorting Robots Market Growth, by Region 2022-2028

Global Waste Sorting Robots Market Growth, by Region

The European Region is Expected to Grow at a Significant Rate in the Waste Sorting Robots Market

The European region holds a considerable share in the global waste sorting robots market. The growth in the region is augmented due to the rise in the number of households, and industrial waste, along with the contribution of regulatory bodies for improving the waste sorting process in recycling facilities is expected to drive the market demand. For instance, according to the World Economic Forum, people in the EU generated an average of 505 kilogrammes of waste in 2020, and Denmark and Luxembourg were the biggest generators of municipal waste in 2020, with 845kg and 790kg per person, respectively, close behind were Malta with 643kg and Germany with 632kg.  

Market Players Outlook

The major companies serving the global waste sorting robots market include Abb, Amp Robotics Corp., Anaergia, Bollegraaf, Cleanrobotics and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in June 2022, Amp Robotics Corp., expanded its partnership with Waste Connections, Inc. With this partnership, the company deliver AI and robotics systems that modernize today’s recycling operations by increasing productivity, stabilizing costs and improving the quality and value of recycled commodities.
