Composting Systems

Composting transforms kitchen scraps and garden waste into nutrient-rich fertiliser that improves soil health, reduces landfill waste, and lessens reliance on synthetics. Living Machines offers two systems to suit different needs: Worm Composting for small-scale urban use and Bulk Composting for larger volumes.

Worm Composting Units (Vermicomposting)

Our worm composting units provide an efficient way to recycle organic waste, whether in a small urban balcony or at a larger scale. Vermicomposting uses earthworms to break down kitchen scraps into vermicompost, a nutrient-rich soil amendment with higher plant-available nutrients than traditional compost.

Compact units are ideal for households and urban spaces, while bulk systems are suited for farms, institutions, and larger volumes of organic material. Both are designed for simplicity, offering a clean, odor-free, and fast method of turning waste into powerful fertiliser.

Choosing the Right Composting System

The best setup depends on your waste volume and available space, but we recommend combining both systems for maximum efficiency.

Worm Composting Units: Available in both small and large sizes, these systems are ideal for processing kitchen scraps. They produce a premium, nutrient-rich fertiliser while keeping the process clean and contained.

Bulk Composting Systems: Designed for volume, they handle a mix of garden waste (leaves, clippings) and food scraps, making them perfect for larger households, farms, and commercial use.

Using both systems together ensures you can manage daily kitchen waste efficiently while also processing larger organic volumes.

Improve Your Soil with High-Quality Compost

Soils everywhere benefit from the regular addition of organic compost. It improves soil structure, creating healthier conditions for roots and increasing the soil’s ability to retain water, especially valuable in areas with inconsistent rainfall.

Compost also delivers a steady supply of nutrients, supporting strong plant growth and boosting yields over time. By making and using your own compost, you cut costs and reduce reliance on chemical fertilisers, while caring for the environment.
