The Thermo Compost 420 is a conical design composter with a 420 litre
capacity. It uses a pin system for easy assembly and is
manufactured from 100% recycled PE which can be recycled again.
Composting is a natural process of
decomposing organic matter into a valuable resource, which provides
many benefits to man and the environment.
A medium capacity composter for the average sized garden
The Thermo Compost 420 is made using an injection moulded PE foaming
process that expands
the plastic and traps in air, providing better heat insulation
properties.
Thick modular panels contain a clever
aeration system of ventilation holes and internal ribs, preventing
blocking and providing optimum moisture and temperature conditions. The
evenly spaced ventilation holes guarantee an ideal
environment for a high rate of decomposition, even with layers of grass
clippings.
The design aids aerobic composting and
easier turning, to build up the heat of the material in the early
stages, killing most weed seeds and plant pathogens.
A well designed and made compost bin
Thermo bins can process kitchen, botanical
and green garden material to make compost, a soil improver or mulch for
use in gardens, parks, cemeteries and nurseries.
The vertical four sided shape gives optimum
performance with minimum use of space.
Filling the Thermo with material is easy
through the wide hinged lid. This also allows for easy
control of moisture (rain intake).
Access for turning removal compost is achieved by pulling
out any one
connecting rods linking modular
panels. This allows either
partial or complete opening of the front
or sides of the bin.
The Thermo Compost 420 construction is extremely robust and
sturdy, with a bin empty weight of 20kg so it will not blow
over easily in strong winds.
A long lifespan is achieved with added
stabilisers for UV light protection.
Thermo bins can be assembled in minutes
without tools - instructions with pictures are provided, and can be
sited on loosened level soil, without
digging in. Worms and micro-organisms in the
soil, interact with organic compostable waste materials breaking down
into an earthy compost, rich in nutrients for supporting the growth of
healthy plants and vegetables.
