Reviews
Hear from some of our happy customers
"NRC completed a full site audit and advised us on improvements we could make increasing recycling and reducing costs. They worked with our team to help everyone understand what we are trying to achieve. We have since invested in new equipment and the waste management process is much more efficient – and we now recycle over 90% of our waste. The NRC team are responsive and attend site whenever we need them."

What happens to my collected catering waste?
Using innovative recycling techniques, we can turn your collected food catering waste into useful resources. These two of the most common catering waste disposal methods include:
- Anaerobic Digestion: This process decomposes food waste without using oxygen. It’s the primary method we, and many across the UK, use.
- In-vessel Composting: Here, food waste is broken down under specific temperatures in a controlled setting.
Any takeaway food waste, from coffee grounds to banana skins, can be treated in this way. It’s a cost-effective and sustainable way to efficiently manage your restaurant waste disposal.
Everything from your coffee grounds to kitchen scraps can be effectively and sustainably managed using these methods. Is the perfect solution if you’re looking for a cost effective and environmentally friendly solution to your catering waste disposals.
Our dedication to sustainability is unwavering. We’re proud to report that we divert 99% of the restaurant waste we gather from ending up in landfills. Out of this, 43% gets recycled, while 56% is transformed into green energy.
