SPLITSTREAM

SplitStream was started by two Dartmouth graduates, Wesley Heim and Erik Jones, with the mission of helping fix the broken recycling system in the United States and abroad... Our core mission is to make sure that recycling actually gets recycled. Currently in the US, our recycling rates are abysmal (68% of paper and paperboard, 65% of aluminum, 25% of glass, and only 9% of plastic), and it is often unclear what ends up happening to the materials... SplitStream Tecnologies produces self-sorting recycling bins that can both sort out contamination, and also sort between recyclable materials.
