Welcome to the forefront of commercial food waste management, where our specialized system integrates the power of Bokashi bran and advanced technology to redefine sustainability. At the heart of this innovative approach is the 120L Agriton Bokashi bin—an airtight container meticulously designed to facilitate the Bokashi composting process. To kickstart the transformation, our expertly crafted Bokashi bran, a vital ingredient, is introduced. For optimal results in a 120L bin, a recommended 1.8-2kg of Bokashi bran is utilized, creating a potent pre-compost blend. The beauty of this system lies not only in its efficacy but also in its scalability; we offer solutions for larger capacities, handling up to 1 ton of waste at a time. Once the Bokashi process is complete, the pre-compost can be stored indefinitely in airtight containers, ensuring a sustainable cycle of waste management for your business

Direct Soil Integration:
Add the Bokashi pre-compost directly to the soil in a trench. Within 4-6 weeks, it becomes a safe and potent food/energy source for the life within the soil, contributing to a thriving soil food web.
Compost Acceleration:
Utilize the pre-compost to accelerate the breakdown of green waste in standard aerobic composting. The facultative nature of Bokashi microbes enhances temperatures and increases microbial activity, expediting the composting process.
Wormery Enrichment:
Introduce the pre-compost to a wormery. Worms love Bokashi as it's predigested for them, enriching the vermicompost and promoting a nutrient-rich environment for your plants.
Soil Factory Rejuvenation:
For smaller quantities, set up soil factories to reinvigorate old potting soil. Blend 1/3 Bokashi food waste with 2/3 old potting soil to create a sustainable mix for healthier plants.
Embrace these versatile options to maximize the benefits of your Bokashi pre-compost, fostering a sustainable and resourceful waste management strategy for your business.

Choosing Bokashi waste management over anaerobic digesters or traditional aerobic composting stands out as a strategic and environmentally conscious decision. Bokashi offers a unique approach by fermenting organic waste in an anaerobic environment, preserving valuable nutrients that can be directly returned to the soil. Unlike anaerobic digesters that demand large-scale infrastructure and consume significant energy, Bokashi systems are adaptable, scalable, and more accessible for businesses of various sizes. Additionally, the facultative microbes in Bokashi accelerate the composting process, offering a faster alternative to traditional aerobic composting alone. This efficiency not only reduces the time required for waste transformation but also enhances the quality of the resulting compost. Embracing Bokashi waste management is a sustainable choice, offering a flexible, energy-efficient, and nutrient-rich solution that aligns with the principles of circular economy and responsible environmental stewardship.
In the United Kingdom's food and drink waste hierarchy, another valuable solution is the incorporation of Bokashi composting.
Bokashi, a Japanese method of fermentation, falls under the prevention and recycling categories. By utilizing a mix of beneficial microorganisms to ferment organic waste, Bokashi offers a way to prevent food waste at the source by encouraging households and businesses to compost kitchen scraps that might otherwise end up in the landfill. The resulting fermented material can be recycled through composting, enriching the soil and contributing to a more sustainable waste management approach. Bokashi serves as a practical and eco-friendly method that aligns with the principles of the waste hierarchy, promoting resource efficiency and minimizing the environmental impact of food and drink waste.
Whispers of Renewal
In bins they rest, a kitchen cast, Scraps and rinds, a colorful past. Bokashi whispers, life renewed,
A silent promise, understood.
Bran and water, a gentle friend, Fermenting magic, without end. Microbes dance, a hungry throng, Waste transformed, a joyful song.
No pungent fumes, no flies alight, Just earthy promise, taking flight. The garden waits, with fertile grace, Bokashi's gift, a warm embrace.
From cast-off bits, a cycle starts, Nourishing roots, for healthy hearts. Bokashi's magic, nature's art, A tiny bin, with a giant heart.
