Food Serviceware: Product Developments to Zero Waste Models
Diverting Food Waste from Landfill and Repurposing it into Compost
Organix Recycling LLC is the country's largest food collector with a footprint in 40 states. We receive food waste from major grocery chains and processors that our collection trucks service in my region. We then process organic and wood waste material into nutrient rich soil amendments.
About Sergio Gonzalez
My Combined 30 years experience owning a landscape Company for 12 years then being deeply involved in the recycling industry up to the present has made me realize we need to each make a difference saving our environment. Organix Recycling tapped my shoulder 3 years ago to open up their first Compost site. I am pleased to be part of a new division for Organix Recycling LLC known as Organix Composting LLC. Since opening our site we have had great success diverting hundreds of tons of food and wood waste from landfill on a daily basis.
Don’t just take our word for it
I strongly recommend Innovation Takes Root. It's a good opportunity to understand and see what happens in this area of biopolymers. It's an international event and not just on PLA. I think it's well done, well-managed, and well-organized. It was a good investment for me.
Innovation Expert - Polymers, Electrolux
I'd definitely come back (to ITR) and recommend it. I think many different industries could learn something from a conference like this - it really is focused on the next level of sustainability.
Vice President, Titan Robotics
It has been a wonderful event; very well organized. I especially appreciate the scheduling of activities, the alternation of speeches, and time to network, which has been one of the key successes from my point of view. We also felt very supported by your team; we had the feeling you believe in what Flo is doing and, for us, that's very important.
