International Food Waste Composter Specialists
Tidy Planet have long been leading the way in innovative food waste solutions for 20 years. The Rocket food waste composter is our original flagship vessel which has been sold to over 1,000 sites worldwide and is well renowned for its quality, longevity and reliability.
We believe that the most sustainable and cost-effective way to deal with food waste is at source, and we’re passionate about equipping organisations with the tools and knowledge to close the loop and recycle their food waste on site – through composting.
Our ethos is to empower our clients to take control of their own food waste management – helping them to reduce their carbon footprint, harness resource potential, and save money at the same time.
For us, composting isn’t a buzzword or Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) fad – it’s a powerful way to protect our environment, reduce landfill volumes and create a valuable end-product. And we’re on a mission to tell the world.

Who we work with
Our food waste solutions can be found in many locations around the world, across a wide range of sectors – including education, hospitality, oil and gas exploration, prison services, and offshore, to name a few.
And while our clients are all different, they have one thing in common – the desire to sustainably manage their food wastes.
Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’ Saisons
Raymond Blanc’s Michelin-starred luxury hotel and restaurant invested in our composting and food waste drying technology, to help the site to compost 94% of its annual food waste. The compost is then used in the hotel’s vegetable and herb gardens and orchards, to grow organic produce.
Subsea 7
Tidy Planet’s food waste drying equipment, the G100 Gobi Dryer, allows Seaway Heavy Lifting – a Subsea 7 company – to safely sterilise and dehydrate organic waste onboard the firm’s heavy-lift crane vessels. And this helps to free up valuable space on board the offshore shipping units.
BP Indonesia
Two B2500 Rocket Composters and a Dehydra Dewaterer are currently converting food waste into compost at BP’s multi-million-pound Integrated Waste Management Facility, at a gas pipeline expansion project in Indonesia. And this solution is also creating jobs for the locals.
Merchant Taylors School
Merchant Taylors School – one of the ‘great nine’ schools in England is the proud owner of a Dehydra Dewaterer and an A900 Rocket Composter. The equipment is not only helping the school save on expensive off-site waste disposal costs, but they’re creating a compost resource that’s used across the site’s sports fields too.
Ford Motor Company
Food waste is a global issue affecting many sectors, with education nearing the top of that list. So, it’s no surprise that an increasing number of schools, colleges and universities across the country are looking for ways to boost their green credentials and reduce their carbon footprint.
City of Glasgow College
Our A900 Rocket Composter is helping the college to process 26 tonnes of food waste per year on site. It’s also facilitating the reduction of city pollution, by omitting the need for weekly disposal truck visits, which previously collected the material for off-site processing.
Les Alchimistes
Les Alchimistes is a French social enterprise, committed to the green and sustainable management of food waste. The organisation started its food waste composting journey in 2017, when the team invested in an A900 Rocket Composter, as part of its pilot project in a disused hospital building – to demonstrate to the French government that a decentralised organic waste collection system would be an environmentally beneficial model for the polluted city of Paris.
Fred. Olsen
International shipping business Fred. Olsen was established in 1848 by three Norwegian brothers. Today, the firm has significantly expanded globally and now focuses on renewable energy – dealing with wind farm development and operation plus offshore wind installations, as well as cruises, real estate, and more.
