The Solution
An on-site micro composting solution that transforms biowaste into premium compost within 15 days. UpCycle is a flexible, odor-free solution that can accept up to up to 350 kg of biowaste per day, including meat and fish.
Case Study
One of the latest UpCycle micro-composting units was installed in the basement of the Pernod Ricard headquarters in Paris where 900 employees use the canteen.
An average of 120 kg of biowaste is recycled every day, generating 60 kg of compost after just 15 days. Some of the compost is reused in the building’s terrace garden to ensure a closed loop and local recycling solution.
Total investment in the facility was approximately 50,000 Eur with electricity consumption estimated at 200 Eur/month
