Operations
| Description or Purpose | This Kitchen Caddy is specifically designed, printed and manufactured in Australia, for Australian families. Reflecting our team’s commitment to the circular economy, the unit is manufactured from at least 80% Post-Consumer Recycled Content, usually collected from the contents of council roadside collection bins. Building on proven conventional caddy designs, this Kitchen Caddy is packed with new features including an in-mould lid label, which revolutionises educational messages. At Source Separation Systems we believe small actions can change the world and so, we are passionate about inspiring Australian families to live more sustainably. This Kitchen Caddy has proven successful in improving organics waste diversion in many council Food Organics, Garden Organics (FOGO) programs. |
| Operating Principles | In Australia, approximately half of household waste is organic. As such, a successful council organics diversion program can have a significant impact in reducing community landfill rates, however the key to success is education. This Kitchen Caddy builds upon the proven success of our previous conventional caddy. The convenient 7 Litre unit still features the popular single sturdy carry handle, and lockable, snap fitting lid, which flips back to create a full opening for plate scraping. In addition, the new version features a rear mounting tab, so the unit can be attached to a wall or under-sink door, and venting channels, which makes it much easier to remove the liner and waste. Most significantly, in an industry first, improved technology enables a full colour flyer to be inserted into the caddy lid during manufacture. As a result, educational messages are permanently embedded under the plastic ensuring they are resistant to scratching or fading. It’s an educational reminder for users every time they divert their food waste. Our standard unit is made with at least 80% Post Consumer Recycled Content. We regularly work with Councils on unique FOGO designs, with a range of custom coloured caddies available to be manufactured in Australia from up to 100% Post-Consumer Recycled Content. |
| Additional Information | The unit can be customised to meet your needs. Simply call one of our Waste Diversion Experts to learn more on 0249 537 644. |

Approvals Related to Use of Output
Important Note on Composting in NSW
In NSW, applying waste to land – including a processed waste such as compost - or using it as a fuel may trigger various regulatory requirements. Depending on the proposed use you may be required to comply with a Resource Recovery Exemption or need to hold an environment protection licence, and pay the waste levy.
While there is a Compost Exemption (2014) it is important to note that drying or dehydrating food waste, or any other compostable waste, is specifically excluded from consideration under this exemption. Drying or dehydrating equipment uses externally supplied energy to heat and ventilate food waste or any other compostable waste in order to rapidly dry the waste material over a short time period (typically 24 to 48 hours), either with or without the addition of an inoculum. If you are interested in this type of equipment you should refer to the resource recovery exemptions for information on lawful use of outputs.
If it is intended to use the material as a fuel, it must comply with the NSW Energy from Waste Policy Statement. http://www.epa.nsw.gov.au/waste/140056enfromwasteps.htm
