Our machines break down rigid solid shapes into dense particulates AND Remove Air pockets to create material blocks with up to 95% less volume.
Traditional garbage bags contain, on average, about 75% air. Air pockets also prevent garbage trucks from being utilized to their total capacity. One zero-day material block contains roughly three 13-gallon garbage bags worth of material.
Particulates create an even material density, and gravity compacts the material within the bio-wrappers, creating a block that is densely packed for maximum space efficiency.
Our entire storage solution offering is made of vermin REPELLENT materials, removing access to organic materials that are usually feeding and breeding grounds for flies, rats, roaches, ants, and even raccoons.
Our storage receptacles contain a thin layer of proprietary vermin-repellant solution sandwiched between the inner and outer shells. In a rare case of vermin breaking through the outer barrier, this would prevent them from infesting the inner.
Our fully biodegradable block wrapping material is infused with a natural capsaicin-based vermin REPELLENT that is safe for any environment. It controls pests by blocking odors that typically attract them to organic waste.
Our entire storage solution offering is also spill-proof, preventing hazardous and sharp materials from penetrating through the containment and posing a danger to your users and staff.
Our storage receptacles are made of a metal-glass alloy that resists cracks, shattering, and breakage. Their wheeled design allows you to easily transport large receptacles with zero heavy lifting. They are also compatible with robotic arms for collections, reducing the risk of injury to collection workers.
Particulate eliminates any large sharp pieces in the material outtake that could potentially penetrate the wrapper and cause injury. Our double-layer bio wrappers also resist piercings and breaking. The heat seal adds the final touch to ultra-secure containment.
Our modular design allows you to remove each part from the forest for cleaning and replacement. Every part that directly interacts with organic materials is removable and dishwasher-proof.
The grinder and countertop receptacle can be completely removed from the machine for cleaning. Simply follow the instructions to remove them and place them in your dishwasher or sink.
The modular design allows us to easily replace any malfunctioning components without decommissioning the entire machine, reducing waste and replacement costs.
Organic waste becomes renewable energy in just three simple steps.
Store food scraps and compostables in a countertop receptacle. When the receptacle is full, snap it into Forest, and the contents will fall directly into the machine to be processed.

The machine will automatically process and seal your compostables in a bio-based block wrapper at a consistent weight. You can collect your blocks and store them in the large storage receptacle for collection.
Use the Zero Day app to schedule an on-demand pickup or leave storage receptacles at collection points on your pre-scheduled pickup day. Zero Day will transport your blocks to a partner digestion or composting facility, keeping your food scraps and organic waste out of landfills.
The national average monthly waste generation rate for businesses per employee is about 0.17 tons.*
The national average monthly collection cost for a 2-yard dumpster is about $130.*
The national average landfill tipping fee for 2024 is $53.72 per ton, and it increases on a yearly basis. The fee is passed on to the customer.*
Landfill taxes have risen at an average of 8% CAGR across the USA and are also passed on to the customer.*

There are more than 3,000 active landfills in the United States, taking up 1,800,000 acres of habitat that displaces local flora and fauna.
According to the EPA, food is the single largest category of material placed in municipal landfills, accounting for about 40% of the total waste.
An estimated 58% of the fugitive methane emissions (i.e., those released to the atmosphere) are from landfilled food waste.
Landfills are the third-largest source of climate change in theUS, only behind FOSSIL fuel and big agriculture.
