Commercial and large scale operations with Zing Bokashi®

Streamlined organic recycling solutions for Commercial and Large-scale operations

Our Zing Bokashi 120 litre bin is perfect for operations which generate a large amount of kitchen waste such as:
  • Hospitality industry (including cafes, restaurants, commercial caterers and vineyards)
  • Schools and colleges
  • Apartment buildings
  • Eco-lodges
  • Offices 
  • Maraes
  • Remote communities
  • Large families, creating more than 10litres of waste each day

Businesses in New Zealand are already reaping the benefits of Zing Bokashi compost.  They're not only lowering operational costs but also providing fresher, healthier alternatives to customers by growing their own produce. 

Food is a product of the environment and it is in our best interest to operate in a healthy environment with unpolluted land, air or water.

Embracing waste minimisation policies offers various advantages, including:
  • save money/reduce costs
  • enhance community image
  • increased media exposure
  • enhanced customer appeal
With Zing Bokashi compost zing, businesses can transform food scraps into stable material.  Depending on local council programmes, they may reduce waste collection frequency from daily to weekly, resulting in significant operational savings. 

Alternatively, they can process waste on-site and utilise the by-products as organic fertiliser, potentially creating lush organic gardens with fresh fruits and vegetables.

Mudbrick Vineyard & Restaurant

One such business which has implemented Zing Bokashi as part of its waste minimisation programme is Mudbrick Vineyard & Restaurant. 

Situated on Waiheke Island, 35 minutes from Auckland city centre, is Mudbrick Vineyard and Restaurant. Renowned for its award-winning wines and food dishes, its chefs have enjoyed international acclaim showcasing the very best New Zealand ingredients. 

Now, this innovative restaurant is also a five star example of successful large-scale kitchen waste recycling in the hospitality industry.

Hanmer Springs Forest Camp Trust uses Zing Bokashi to Achieve a Sustainable Lifestyle

Hanmer Springs Forest Camp is committed to being a fully sustainable holiday destination. To achieve this, they employ several initiatives including: 
  • Water and energy conservation 
  • Recycling 
  • Minimising food waste 
  • Composting
Recycling Made Easy 
As you walk through the camp, it’s hard to miss the signposted recycling stations dotted around the camping ground. These encourage visitors to separate their glass, food waste and general recyclables (paper, cans, plastic and card). 

Reducing Waste with Zing Bokashi 
Food waste constitutes a significant proportion of the camp’s waste. To reduce this, the camp uses Zing Bokashi to compost their food waste and return nutrients to the soil. By using a bit of kiwi ingenuity, the liquid derived from the composting process is then used in the camp’s septic tanks. 

Growing a New Generation
As a leader in sustainable practices, the camp is also committed to passing on their knowledge to the next generation. School groups take regular tours where they learn about the sustainable practices used, including:
  • How the camp uses Zing Bokashi 
  • The camp’s impressive recycling system 
  • The camp’s water and energy conservation
Mucking In

Camp staff show the kids the compost pit, demonstrate the Zing Bokashi bin set-up and describe the process. The kids then add their food scraps (usually fruit peels) to the Zing Bokashi and sprinkle on the Zing for a bit of magic.

In the Customer’s Words 
“We have estimated we save around 10,000 tonnes of food from the landfill each year since we commenced using Zing Bokashi. This has saved us on average $1,200 per annum on waste to the landfill.” – Elizabeth Meaclem, past Camp Manager.
