ORGANICS & FOOD WASTE RECYCLING
(INDUSTRIAL QUANTITIES)
Blue Planet recycled 2389 cases of pop (industrial organics recycling) that was de-packaged and sent for protein recovery (fed to bugs that metabolize sugars into protein). All the plastic bottles and aluminium cans were recycled and the liquid went through our Organics Recycling program.
Food waste is an unfortunate by-product of food manufacturing and distribution. Our approach is to recover the valuable nutrients from this waste by making animal feeds, fertilizers and composted soils.

HOW IT WORKS

Finished compost is tested and graded, which determines its final use. The resulting product can be used on site at the processing facility such as a farm, or it can be sold as a product that enriches soil by improving its structure and increasing its moisture and nutrient retention. When compost is used in farming, gardening and landscaping applications, it provides organic nutrients to plants without the use of chemical fertilizers and retains moisture in the soil, reducing the need for watering.
As a manufacturer, distributor or logistics service provider with a trusted brand, your reputation is critical to your bottom line. Reselling of branded merchandise poses a major threat to your reputation, so discarding excess inventory, spoiled organics, off-spec product or other distressed materials by simply taking it to the landfill isn’t an option. We provide a Certificate of Destruction for assurance.
We handle product destruction in a professional, confidential, and cost efficient timely manner.
Depending on the product, there are many different alternative destruction and recycling methods and technologies available.
These options include:
- Dismantling into components and recycling
- Organics Waste de-packaging and composting, recycling packaging
- Waste-to-Energy Incineration
- Recycle/reuse or facilitated donation
- Waste water treatment
- Shredding
- Ingredient, commodity or material capture for reuse in other processes
We will provide you with a Certificate of Destruction including diversion information showing how much recycling occurred. Upon request, we can provide photos, video or in-person inspections. This guarantee of certified destruction is to protect your liabilities, brand image, and proprietary information.

Don’t take any chances, let Blue Planet handle your product destruction needs and rest assured that we are making the best decisions possible for your brand and the environment.
