Waste Sorting Robots Market Size, Share, Growth Analysis, By Type(Plastic Products Sorting, Metallic Waste Sorting, Wood and Bricks Sorting), By Application(Waste Sorting, and Recycling), By End User(Municipality, and Industrial), By Region - Industry Forecast 2024-2031

Global Waste Sorting Robots Market size was valued at USD 2.03 Billion in 2022 and is poised to grow from USD 2.43 Billion in 2023 to USD 10.18 Billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 19.6% in the forecast period (2024-2031).

The integration of humans and robots for efficient garbage sorting is one of the key developments of the market expected to positively impact the industry during the forecast period. Robots are more accurate and efficient but accurately using robots alone is also a difficult task. Therefore, manufacturers are developing new methods to improve waste sorting accuracy. A gaming company has created a game where robots and humans can work together to maximize waste management accuracy and efficiency.

The software already has several functions for humans and robots, including workers using a touchscreen to control products coming through a conveyor belt. With the help of the software, the robots can achieve a pick rate of 2,500 picks per hour, which exceeds the recycling rate. The combination of humans and robots will help in sorting the waste more efficiently and effectively and will drive the adoption of this combination by the end-user industries, which will drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
