Recycling

Composting is a well-established, natural method for treating organic materials to produce a product that is free of pathogens and high in nutrients and can therefore add valuable organic matter to improve the soil. It features high on the Government’s preferred recycling solutions.

An on-site In Vessel Composter (IVC) enables waste producers to adopt a 100% sustainable approach to the disposal of their food waste thereby ensuring its diversion from environmentally unfriendly landfill or incineration plants.

Following maceration and dewatering, food waste is recycled into high quality compost in around 6 weeks.

By providing the ideal conditions in which microbes can act upon the food waste, IVCs fufil the essential requirements for producing high quality compost.
