Food Does Not Disappear When We Throw It Away
When organic waste is sent to landfill, valuable nutrients are lost instead of returning naturally to the soil.
Keeping food materials within a natural cycle allows them to continue creating value through composting and sustainable reuse.

Understanding Composting Starts With Understanding Nature
Composting is more than disposing of food scraps. It is about understanding how organic materials break down, how nutrients return to soil, and how small daily choices can create a more sustainable future.

The Balance Between Green And Brown Materials
Healthy compost relies on a balance between nitrogen-rich green materials and carbon-rich brown materials.
Understanding this balance helps create better compost conditions and supports the natural decomposition process.
GREEN MATERIALS
Nitrogen-rich materials that help provide moisture and nutrients.
- Food scraps
- Fresh plant material
- Coffee grounds
- Garden trimmings
- Grass clippings
BROWN MATERIALS
Carbon-rich materials that help structure and balance compost.
- Dry leaves
- Cardboard
- Paper
- Straw
- Untreated wood materials
Recommended carbon to nitrogen balance for healthy composting.
Composting Tips For Better Results
Simple habits can help maintain performance and create better composting results over time.
How can I reduce odours?
Avoid overfilling the bucket, maintain a balanced mix of materials, and keep the activated carbon filter maintained according to usage.
How do I use the finished compost material?
The processed output can be mixed with soil before adding to gardens or plants. Biobeen recommends mixing approximately one part processed material with ten parts soil.
How often should the carbon filter be replaced?
The activated carbon filter should generally be replaced approximately every 6 months depending on frequency of use and operating conditions.
Can Biobeen fit into everyday kitchen routines?
Yes. Biobeen is designed for household kitchens, helping make composting more practical without requiring traditional outdoor composting space.
