Why Choose Owareco

OWARECO markets innovative Zero Waste solutions for large producers of organic food waste to meet their goals for sustainability and supporting the environment. We do this through cost-effective, on-site green technology solutions that reduce and convert organic food waste into reusable water and a bio-sterile soil amendment.

If your business is interested in taking the lead toward a sustainable future, reducing costs, and restoring the environment, we can help you meet your goals.

Zero Waste

Our zero-waste solutions help businesses and food service organizations meet city, state, federal and corporate diversion goals. Our products convert and reduce food and organic resources for reuse without adversely affecting land, water, or air.

Dehydration Technology

Our company provides innovative, organic waste reduction and conversion technology on-site. Our units dehydrate food and organic waste in hours and the reduction in overall volume can be as high as 90%, leaving only 10% of the original mass processed.

Biomass Output

The output product is a bio-sterile, highly concentrated organic soil amendment that can be used in landscapes and gardens or compacted for use as biofuel. The only other by-product is reclaimable water that can be used for irrigation, liquid fertilizer, or facilities operations.

The Global Challenge of Waste

Waste generation is a natural by-product of urbanization, economic development and population growth. As nations become more developed, offer more products and services in global trade and exchange, they are challenged with managing the scale of additional waste.

Ecovim™ Innovative Design

Owareco distributes Ecovim™  units that do not require any freshwater or chemicals to process wastes because of the high heat used to decompose the waste. In a few hours, it can convert pounds of food and organic waste into reusable sterilized by-products. Condensation extracted during the reduction process, can produce several gallons of water that can be reclaimed and used to water plants and crops. The internal filters help strain out waste odors as it dehydrates and the machine operates on 220 volts of electricity.
