Composting

We operate compost plants throughout the UK, and compost over 100,000 tonnes every year. The compost produced finds a variety of end users; restoration of our own landfill sites, some is returned to our local authority partners, and, increasingly it is used for the manufacture of top quality soils and bagged compost for the retail sector.

Methods of composting; Windrow composting, Pod composting, In-vessel systems.

"Composting is important as part of a sustainable waste management approach encouraging landfill diversion, increasing recycling and providing a 'green' product that can be applied to a number of end uses from soil improvers through to horticultural applications."
