Turns green waste e.g. crop stalks, timber and garden waste into high-value products initially focused on animal feed, but also potentially packaging, construction, textiles and more.
Sustinent is changing the way we value green waste.
We have developed a scalable, clean, safe way to transform crop stalks, timber and garden waste, into livestock feed.
The Sustinent solution:
- Is better than composting, burning or sending green waste to landfill
- Needs little land or water
- Doesn't compete with traditional livestock or our food system for inputs and
- Produces year-round, no matter the weather or season.
