We are delighted to share that over 188 tonnes of used Vegware and food waste were composted on our Scottish Close the Loop composting collection service in 2019. That’s the equivalent of over 10.8 million Vegware 12oz double wall hot cups or the weight of two blue whales! 

Our Close the Loop service collects used Vegware and food scraps from most of Scotland, helping our clients join the circular economy. Collection regions include Edinburgh, Glasgow, the Central Belt, East Lothian, the Scottish Borders, Perth and Dundee, and the Scottish West Coast (see the full list here: vegware.com/uk/page/composting-regions/). 

In under 12 weeks, used Vegware and food scraps are composted. They turn into nutrient-rich compost for Scottish fields, helping grow plants and crops.
