Metaspectral offers Clarity Recover to classify material streams at the edge, including black plastics, polymer blends, multilayer materials and automotive shredder residue. Its evaluation process uses customer samples and returns synchronized detection/ejection footage, purity and contamination changes, and a recovery-value model. Throughput and recovery performance require a line-specific test; the website's calculator inputs are examples, not measured customer results.

The May 11, 2026 French PacifiCan backgrounder explicitly identifies MLVX Technologies as doing business as Metaspectral in Vancouver and allocates $2,554,685 for commercialization of its AI-powered recycling imaging systems, specialized sensors and hardware, and skilled hiring. These are funded project objectives, not a verified count of installed sorting lines or jobs already created.
