Solutions

Management solutions for food and organic waste

After we conduct our initial waste assessment we follow a variety of protocols to help define the plan for your business needs

Source Reduction

The best way to manage waste is not to produce it. Businesses can take steps to reduce the amount of waste they generate by implementing better inventory management, offering unsold yet usable food to food banks, or redistributing to employees or community members. We will help identify these options for you.

Collection and Transportation

Given the perishable nature of food and organics waste, timely and efficient collection systems are critical. We can arrange specialised bins on-site and even separate collection routes to manage these waste streams effectively.

Recycling

It is not uncommon for businesses to find it economically beneficial to divert organic waste, and potentially monetise it into other materials (e.g., selling compost). Organic wastes, such as used cooking oil, can also be recycled into new products, like biodiesel.

Composting

Composting is a natural process that transforms organic waste into nutrient-rich soil amendments. Commercial-scale composting facilities can handle large quantities of organic waste and produce high-quality compost. We have relationships with many facilities who provide these kind of organic services.

Anaerobic Digestion

This is a biological process where microorganisms break down organic waste in the absence of oxygen. It produces biogas (which can be used for energy) and digestate, a nutrient-rich residue that can be applied to land as a soil conditioner.
