Waste Robotics partners with Australian engineering firm

Waste Robotics, a Trois-Rivières, Quebec-based sorting technology company, has announced its partnership with AE Gibson & Sons, an Australian engineering firm.

The collaboration is part of Waste Robotics’ Licensed Integrator Partnership (LIPS) program, which it says aims to accelerate the global adoption of intelligent sorting systems through a network of regional partners for sales, deployment and after-sales support.

With this agreement, AE Gibson & Sons becomes the official LIPS partner for Australia.

Founded as a fifth-generation, family-owned business, AE Gibson & Sons operates two large-scale manufacturing centers for industrial machinery. Waste Robotics says AE Gibson & Sons' expertise encompasses systems for processing renewable resources, biomass and waste, as well as engineering, designing and manufacturing special purpose industrial equipment, specialized engineering services, fabrication, machining, hydraulics, pneumatics, automation systems and robotics.

“Partnering with AE Gibson & Sons is a meaningful step for us, not just in expanding to the Australian market, but in aligning with a team that understands industrial-grade machinery and share our vision for smarter, safer, highly efficient processes,” says Luis Martins, vice president of sales and marketing at Waste Robotics. “Their track record in automation and customer service gives us confidence that together, we can deliver reliable solutions tailored to local industry needs.”

“We’re thrilled to be partnering with Waste Robotics to deliver high-quality robotic waste sorting and recycling solutions to our customers across Australia,” AE Gibson & Sons CEO Curtis Gibson says. “This collaboration brings together the strengths of both teams to offer advanced, sustainable and efficient systems that customers can rely on for long-term performance.”

Waste Robotics says the LIPS program is central to its global growth strategy because it connects regional industry leaders with the company’s artificial intelligence- (AI-) powered sorting systems.

According to Waste Robotics, this new partnership is expected to enhance operational efficiency for material recovery facilities (MRFs) and waste processors in Australia.
