At Sanderson Environmental Ltd, we’re proud to introduce our specialist Compost Oversize Processing Service, designed to support the UK composting industry in achieving higher recovery rates and improved sustainability outcomes.
Oversize material—often a by-product of the composting process—typically includes wood, plastics, stones, and other non-compostable or poorly composted materials. Traditionally, much of this material has been sent to landfill or low-value disposal routes. Our new service provides a cost-effective, compliant, and environmentally responsible alternative.
Turning Oversize Into Opportunity
Through a combination of advanced screening, shredding, and materials recovery technologies, we can process compost oversize to extract reusable fractions such as:
- Recovered wood suitable for biomass or recycling
- Inert materials for secondary aggregates
- Residuals suitable for energy-from-waste or other diversion options
This not only reduces landfill tonnage but also helps composting facilities increase their recycling rates, lower disposal costs, and meet regulatory targets.
Who Is This Service For?
Our Compost Oversize Processing Service is ideal for:
- In-vessel and open windrow composting facilities
- Local authorities and municipal contractors
- Green waste processors and organics recyclers
- Agricultural and horticultural operations handling compostable material
