The many problems of food garbage
For a clean home
Control odors and flies while preventing leaks
・Food garbage containing water rots easily and leads to emitting odors and attracting flies.
・Leaking from wet food garbage will soil your floors and clothing.
・Since dried garbage doesn’t rot, bad odors and flies are kept in check.
・And there is no need to worry about leakage.
Makes taking out the trash easy
Weight is reduced by 80%.
・Because 80% of food garbage is water, taking out the trash involves carrying that heavy water, too.
・And since water makes food garbage rot quickly, trash must be taken out on a strict schedule.
[The many problems of food garbage]

Does Not Rot Over Time
Test Material: 750 g of food garbage and 250 g of dried garbage (created by drying 750 g of food garbage)
Test Environment: Test material was left exposed to the open air.
Weight Decreased by About 80%
* When test food garbage (produced through the manufacturer’s specifications) is dried in the PCL series for a period of six hours. Study conducted by the manufacturer.

How to use as organic fertilizer
1. In a standard planter with a width of 65 cm (about 12 L of soil),add about eight paper cups worth of dried garbage that has been broken into pieces about 1 cm in size.
・One paper cup is about 200 mL.
・If some dried garbage is too hard to break with your hands, cut it into smaller pieces with scissors etc. or discard it.
2.Thoroughly mix the entire contents of the planter.
・Churn the soil once a week to allow air to enter it.
・Add just enough water to dampen the soil, then set it aside.(It’s best to store it for 1–4 weeks in the summer or 1–3 months in the winter.)
3.Add a covering of 2–3 cm of soil, then plant and water the seeds.
・Take care not to allow seedlings to directly contact the mixed soil.
