ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT GENERATED BY ORGANIC RESIDUE
The waste we generate at home and at commercial establishments and industries causes negative environmental
impact due to its uncontrolled decomposition and rotting process. Some of the impacts are:
Pollution of the affluents of rivers, due to the exposal of the leachate to other toxic substances.
Production of CO2 and methane that contributes to the destruction of the ozone layer.
Proliferation of insects, rodents and birds of prey.
Sources of infection for human beings.
Visual pollution.
Generation of unpleasant odors.
Integral management of organic residue
The service of integral management of organic residue aims at creating awareness and training, to later collect and profit. It manages the selective collection and technical transport of our clients organic residue to the treatment plant of Organicos del Caribe. There, residue is transformed into high quality organic fertilizer through a composting process. At the same time, Organicos del Caribe provides the following services:
Training in the proper separation and handling of organic residue straight at the source. Without the proper separation carried out by our clients right at the source, the process at the plant would not be possible.
Raising awareness in your work team on the importance and the responsibility that preserving the environment represents.
Fulfilling our clients corporate social responsibility norms.
Delivering a monthly certificate that states the quantity of organic residue collected (in cubic meters m3 or kilograms kg).
Collection at least 3 times a week.
Brand packaging destruction
The service of packaging destruction takes our clients worries away by guaranteeing the complete destruction of wrappings, containers and packagings with the name of your brand on them, so that they cannot be reused in any way. The organic residue left is later used in our composting process. Our clients are given:
Photographic evidence of the destruction of the packagings.
A certificate that states the quantity that is disposed (in cubic meters m3 or kilograms kg).
Technical disposal of organic residue
Organicos del Caribe offers its technical disposal of organic residue to those clients who are able to transport their residue to our composting plant. The organic material is received in bulk, stored in tanks or wrapped up. Our clients are given:
Photographic evidence of the received material.
A certificate that states the quantity that is disposed (in cubic meters m3 or kilograms kg).
TRAINING AND AND RAISING AWARENESS
Before operations, Organicos del Caribe gives awareness talks to our clients staff in charge of handling organic residue, in order to ensure an adequate separation of the residue at the source. This is vital to providing proper use and service of the organic residue.
This training guarantees organic material free from impurities such as plastic, metal, glass and polystyrene, among others. These materials would not allow the proper decomposition of the organic residue, causing inconvenients in the composting process, besides generating our clients cost.
