Through composting, more than half of solid municipal waste could have a life beyond the landfill. Like food residues and green waste. Composting organic waste offers three benefits. You reduce landfilling. Improve the efficiency of natural fertilisers. And, depending on the technique you use, recover compost and biogas. When we collect organic waste, we design the right composting facility for it. That could be windrow composting, or a virtually odourless in-vessel system. Our service is tailored to the type of organic waste we collect, where plants are located, and local environmental legislation and norms. Our laboratory tests and validates all compost on its physical, chemical, and biological properties. To make sure it’s nothing but the best.

Up to a third of municipal waste is made up of organic or food waste; separating and composting this not only drastically reduces the amount of waste going to landfill, it can also generates a cheap, nutrient-rich natural fertiliser which can improve farming yields and restore soil quality. Composting organic waste materials can be done either with oxygen present (aerobically) or in the absence of oxygen (anaerobically). The latter process creates significant quantities of methane gas which can be captured and used to generate energy.
