What happens to the disposable nappies?

We separate the plastic and the fibre in our process. The high quality plastic goes to plastic recyclers. From the fibre we’re making a super absorbent cat litter which is very popular!

Our cat litter is half the weight of other fibrous litters, so will release less carbon. If your cat uses 1L of our litter it will save 1kg of climate changing emissions. It’s also flushable in most systems. And importantly – we’re extending the life of a waste and creating a new resource from it!

Our cat litter was tested by Melbourne cats and it’s popular with catteries and domestic users. It’s available from our factory in Lilydale, but check our times.
