Description
The Ridan Pro 200 is an eco-friendly, self-sufficient composting solution suitable for pubs, cafes, shops, schools or other smaller businesses. The composting process works by turning a handle which is attached to a series of gears or paddles. This aerates the compost mixture and will push broken-down compost through a collection outlet.
The Ridan 200 will handle 5.5 tonnes of Food waste annually - or just over 100kg a week.
When the Pro 200 is regularly fed with food waste and carbon-rich materials, the inner temperature can reach around 60°C, resulting in a composting process that is 32 times faster than traditional 'cold' composting.
Ridan's composters have a weatherproof galvanised steel frame, with an insulating jacket that retains heat within the unit. Both cooked and uncooked food can be added, as well as garden and animal waste.
When you collect compost from the outlet, it will be broken down but not fully matured. The next step is to add it to the Maturation Bin (sold separately). Compost should be left in the maturation bin for 2-3 months before it is ready for use.
See the 'Instructions' tab for more detailed info and a visual guide to how Ridan composting works.
Ridan's composting system requires no power, saves on waste collection charges and lowers your businesses' carbon footprint as well as landfill emissions.

Food waste that you add to the composter should be mixed in a 50/50 ratio with brown/carbon materials, such as wood pellets, wood shavings or sawdust.
The composter will operate best at around 3/4 full.
Large pieces of food should be cut up before adding to the composter.
Drain off excess fluids and avoid using large bones.
