FAQs

Where can commercially compostable packaging be processed in New Zealand?

A number of facilities around New Zealand accept commercially compostable packaging, and the list is growing.

Christchurch City Council Organics Processing Plant – Operated by Living Earth
Capital Compost – Wellington Southern Landfill
Revital - Central North Island including Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Taranaki
Palmerston North City Council (Awapuni Resource Recovery Park)
Hampton Organics – Hampton PARRC - Waikato
Envirofert Limited - Auckland & Waikato

An alternative is to find someone locally who makes “hot compost”. In this method of composting, the temperature of the heap rises to 55°C, just like a commercial facility. Our packaging will break down in a well-managed hot compost heap.
