The leaves are starting to turn, with dark, chilly nights drawing in; this can only mean one thing, autumn is well and truly on its way. InSinkErator®, the global leader, inventor and manufacturer of food waste disposers, provides the perfect companion for disposing of vegetable peelings from your warming homemade soup this autumn.

A staggering 33 million tonnes of food waste makes its way to landfills each year, which breaks down, producing methane gas. Methane is 21 times more potent than CO2 as a greenhouse gas, and an increase in methane can have an adverse effect on global warming. Although watching what we buy and how much we cook can lessen the amount of food waste created in our home, there is still a large amount of food waste that is unavoidable, and must be disposed of.

Composting food waste is an ideal method of limiting the amount sent to landfill for those with the time and space to do so. Good elements for composting include vegetable scraps, eggshells and tea bags, as well as other household waste, such as shredded newspapers and grass clippings. Div Dispose of your food waste with InSinkerator® this Autumn erting this organic waste from landfill will help to reduce harmful emissions and lessen the strain on local landfill sites, while providing a completely free and natural soil enricher.

However, composting is not exhaustive in dealing with food waste. Adding bones to your compost heap can attract rats and other pests, and organic waste that is slow to decompose will be a hindrance when it comes to using the material. To complement your composting, an InSinkErator® food waste disposer will deal with food waste unsuitable for composting, hygienically and instantly. A food waste disposer is also ideal for those who are unable to compost.

The brand new Evolution 250 features a deluxe polished chrome stopper cover and new style trim shell, as well as being supported with an unrivalled eight year parts and labour guarantee.
