We are delighted you are considering turning your floristry waste into compost.

The COM:POST system takes your weekly green waste and turns it into reusable compost. This helps you to reduce your environmental impact and reassure your customers of your sustainability policy.

Let’s make the change together.

Our closed loop system

Stage One: The Florist.
We provide all our florists with compostable paper sacks which they in turn fill with green waste - either from conditioning or when they return from a wedding or event.

Stage Two: The Collection.
We regularly collect the full sacks from our florists, either via our wholesaler partners or using our fleet of vehicles.

Stage Three: The Composter.
We work with composting partners across the UK. It takes up to 16 weeks to turn all green waste into rich, nutrient filled compost. The compostable sacks are a valuable addition as it helps with the process.

Stage Four: The Grower.
We pride ourselves with creating a closed loop system as all compost produced by our system is returned to growers for food and flower production.

How it works.

One of the most asked questions by our florists is, what happens to our green waste when it leaves us?
