Food recycling
Food waste recycling collections can be tailored to suit your business needs. We offer complete flexibility, with several food collection options to choose from. Whether that's our clean bin exchange service, bin emptying, or a combination of the two, we've got you covered.
Once collected, food waste is then taken to Biogen, where they use anaerobic digestion (AD) to convert it into biogas and liquid biofertiliser. Biogas generates renewable electricity whilst biofertiliser is spread onto Bedfordia farms local to the AD plant to help grow crops.
