Pixelabs continues to bring innovation to the most important events. After our participation in Advanced Factories in Barcelona and Control in Stuttgart, where we showcased how AI is revolutionizing industrial quality control, we flew to Resource & Waste Management Expo (RWM Expo), held in Birmingham, United Kingdom. This event is recognized as the leading platform for professionals in recycling, waste management, and sustainability, gathering over 14.000 attendees and 700 exhibitors. And before continuing with the post, we want to thank everyone who visited our stand!
Traditionally, waste management and valorization have been marked by siloed systems that are difficult to scale, often operating in very challenging environments, such as recycling plants. Conventional computer vision tools—based on specific cameras and fixed configurations—serve their purpose but have limitations when facing increasingly complex processes.

AI-Waste Engine at RWM Expo 2025
AI-Waste Engine represents a paradigm shift: our AI algorithms are not dependent on closed hardware or universal configurations. All intelligence resides in our Pixelabs AI-Engine, allowing integration into diverse environments completely independent of the capture devices.
Participating in RWM Expo allowed us to demonstrate how our solution can optimize waste management and advance toward a more sustainable circular economy model. AI-Waste Engine combines precision, adaptability, and efficiency, offering practical solutions for MRFs, sorters, and recyclers seeking to maximize results and reduce environmental impact.
Why AI-Waste Engine?
Analyzes materials, layers, weight, volume, and moisture in your waste stream.
Identifies materials with a hyperspectral camera and detects the type of waste with a color camera. All intelligence is integrated into our Pixelabs AI-Engine, eliminating the need for specific hardware.
Some of the differentiating features include:
- Color and hyperspectral camera.
- Based on molecular analysis.
- Handles dense waste streams.
- Additional predictions for visually similar waste.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the way organizations operate, introducing significant process changes, optimizing resources, and opening new opportunities. In the context of the circular economy, AI allows for much more precise and efficient waste and material characterization. Just as in industrial quality control, where AI enables more accurate and efficient inspection, AI-Waste Engine transforms waste management, bringing us closer to a more sustainable circular economy model.
Pixelabs’ participation in RWM Expo 2025 was a unique experience, giving us the opportunity to connect with experts, discover new industry trends, and showcase technological solutions that optimize processes, improve traceability, and promote a more efficient circular economy model.
