All food waste can be composted, raw or cooked, meat, fish and dairy. The mixture within the Ridan gets very hot naturally staying at between 50 and 70 degrees centigrade, this heat kills pathogens and seeds, it also accelerates the composting process by using fast acting thermophilic bacteria.
On-site aerobic composting locks carbon back into the compost where it enriches the soil, creating ideal growing conditions for more food, completing the cycle in a natural way.
