Composters

Domestic organic waste is almost always convertible into a precious resource, thus playing a role in protecting the environment and reducing waste. Producing compost at home is a practical and natural solution to manage organic waste from the kitchen and the garden. It contributes to activate a virtuous circle and produce excellent fertilizers.

Function

Home composting

With the home garden composter you will actively handle garden cuttings, vegetable waste and food scraps that are generated every day.

A garden composter has significant advantages:

  • It allows to reduce our environmental impact by reducing the amount of waste
  • It allows us to reduce the purchase of chemical fertilizers with a significant benefit for our health, as it is able to produce a sufficient amount of excellent compost
  • Composters capacities vary between 200 and 1000 litres to adapt to different needs
  • For a family of 3/4 people with a small garden, the most suitable is the 300 litre composter

The aerated Horto composters line is designed to reproduce the natural cycle: from the compost, to the soil and then to the atmosphere. The material used maintains adequate thermal insulation and the right degree of humidity necessary for the generation of compost, and it protects from atmospheric agents.

Managing compostable organic waste at home is even more effective and simple thanks to the instructions and the composting manual that can be downloaded from the CompostUP application.

Educational composter

Transforming waste into precious nourishment for a vegetable garden is an important and exciting educational experience, which leads new generations to approach urban waste and its management in a new way, for a new awareness and a renewed social responsibility.

Talking about home composting from an educational point of view is essential, and it first of all means addressing the issue of urban waste generated daily at home.

Teaching children to respect, take care of and value the environment around them is essential to grow socially responsible adults, who will be aware and able to choose. Involving children often generates an added value: contact with families, guiding adults who are not very sensitive to environmental issues to slowly change their habits.

The experience of composting as a biological process is rich in educational and scientific implications, which give the school a key role in the development of a collective consciousness.

Educational composters are the perfect tools for teaching how composting works: a 200 l composter that also allows children to watch what happens inside it, and of an area with 3/7 panels to create a vegetable garden.

Assembly instructions are included, as well as illustrated manuals for home composting.
