Reap the Benefits

It turns into renewable energy (to power businesses and communities) and nutrient-rich bio-fertiliser for farms, diverting waste from landfill, reducing your carbon footprint, and supporting sustainability goals. Enjoy hassle-free service, transparent reporting, and the satisfaction of turning waste into a resource.

  • The concept was straightforward and simple. Very easy, and in the 5-years we've worked with them, it's been fantastic.

  • ReFood was great, setting us up with our regular collections and sorting us out with an ideal solution for our needs. The collections are reliable, and it's great to know our waste produce is being given a new life as a greener energy source.

  • Having used this service now for 6 weeks, I have to say we've been very happy with ReFood. Ebony had handled all administrative aspects perfectly, and the collection of bins has been faultless.

    Jon Smithells

    Six Poor Folk, Cafe Bar Bistro

  • The service so far has been efficient. Good communication, as a busy cafe when food waste comes back you don't feel as bad knowing that it's getting recycled.
