FoodCycler Platinum

Feed Your Family and Feed the Earth

We send 10 million+ tons of food waste to landfills every year, 10 million! It is estimated that by 2025 this will increase a further 1.1 million unless we each do our bit and try our best to nurture the planet we inhabit.  

A House of Commons report from the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee stated:

• The Waste and Resources Action Programme estimates that UK food waste is associated with greenhouse gas emissions of over 20 million tonnes, with approximately three-quarters of those emissions arising in the UK and the remainder overseas
• The worst way of dealing with food waste is disposal through waste incineration or to send it to landfill
• We are sending food waste to landfill that could help power the National Grid and could provide a good agricultural fertiliser

It’s not just the greenhouse effect of our food waste that causes issues to our already struggling planet. Where does this food waste go if it isn’t composted? In a plastic bin bag of course, and it’s no secret in this day and age that plastic is absolutely not our friend. Composting your unused or uneaten food helps you and the planet in many ways:

• Saves landfill waste and reduces greenhouse emissions
• Helps you grow your own organic vegetables at home without spending at the supermarket
• Flower your garden without having to buy bulky bags of compost
• Reduces the use of plastic bin bags meaning you buy less frequently, thus saving you money and saving the planet from damaging plastic
• Eradicates pollution for those who currently incinerate their food waste

Food Recycling: The Convenient, Quick, Odour Free Way

The incredible technology of the FoodCycler Platinum means you can recycle your food waste in just 3 hours. This is quite remarkable when you compare it to other composting options:

• Hot turn compost bins take up to 20 days
• Black soldier fly compost bins take 3 weeks
• A worm compost bin takes between 1-3 months
• A slow no turn compost bin takes between 3-12 months

Using the FoodCycler Platinum, you can have your breakfast and by lunchtime be adding fertiliser to your beloved flower bed or allotment space, it really is that quick and easy to use. It’s a great feeling knowing you haven’t wasted money on food you haven’t eaten, that instead you have used that food to grow more food, or to nourish your hanging baskets; and of course, you’re doing your bit for the planet!

The FoodCycler Platinum is a fantastic tool for any keen gardener or for those who have their own allotment, either at home or on a rented piece of land. You can guarantee that the fruits and vegetables you are growing are being nourished by an organic fertiliser created at home, by you. It’s a great way of reusing waste, saving the environment and keeping money you’d normally spend on fertiliser firmly in your pocket!
