What does it mean to De-Pack?
When packaged food products can’t be sold or donated, we help recover what’s still valuable. Our de-packaging technology separates organic content from packaging, so materials can be composted or recycled, not wasted. De-packaging isn’t the solution for all occasions, but it is often the best option for large grocers and food distributers experiencing significant volumes of organics otherwise destined for a landfill or incinerator. For most smaller businesses and schools, we encourage source separation at the point of generation for a clean organic stream that can either be converted into renewable energy via anaerobic digestion or composted to support soil health. Agri-Cycle relies on a variety of end uses to recover wasted food, including digestion to energy, composting to soil amendment, and animal feed.
