Glacier Case Studies

Real Robots. Real MRFs. Real Results.

Glacier robots are already recovering millions of recyclables, cutting contamination, and paying for themselves in under a year.

Explore case studies from facilities using Glacier to boost performance—and track results in real time.

Michigan MRF
(residue line)

15M PET Bottles Recovered.
$138K in New Revenue

Glacier’s AI dashboard revealed PET leakage. The MRF installed an upstream PET sorter and saw a 70% recovery improvement.

  • 10-month payback
  • 70% reduction in PET leakage

California MRF
(Fiber Line)

+17% Paper Purity With
Glacier on Fiber QC

A three-robot deployment improved sort quality and purity downstream of an optical sorter.

  • 95% robot uptime
  • 3 robots installed

Indiana MRF
(Residue Line)

500,000+ lbs PET
Recovered From Residue

Glacier AI flagged recyclables leaking to residue. Operators used insights to redirect material and justify upstream investments.

  • PET + HDPE identified in real time
  • Additional revenue unlocked
