EcoBin


Modern-day composting for the modern-day household.

Meet EcoBin

EcoBin is the next-generation composter for today’s household. Traditional composting has many problems - it takes several weeks to finish, generates odor and bacteria, and the compost can impair plant growth. By optimizing compost conditions and automating the process, EcoBin speeds up this process to a matter of days. With EcoBin, homeowners will be able to convert their food waste into high-quality composter faster and more conveniently than ever before.

Variable Heating

A two-stage heating process speeds up the composting process while eliminating harmful bacteria and weeds.

Horizontal agitator

The horizontal agitator aerates the compost while expanding the reaction area, preventing the production of odor and hastening the process.

Mobile Compatibility

The EcoBin mobile application informs users of the composting progress and gives tips on how to improve the quality of the compost further.

Compost Catalyzers

The EcoBin will be accompanied by a mix of materials that can be mixed with food waste to enhance the resulting compost.
