Transform Food Waste Into Something Good – For Your Family & the Planet
You and your family produce food waste each and every day—we all do. But with a global food waste crisis among us, what can we do to transform our smelly trash and reduce our footprint? Enter the FoodCycler®.
This sleek food waste recycler helps families manage their food waste right at home.
Kids brought home unfinished lunch? Toss it in!
Got that container of leftovers in the fridge that’s been in there for a bit too long? It can handle it.
The beauty of it (aside from looking good) is that you’ll have a kitchen that doesn’t have a smelly garbage, the unit is whisper quiet, and better yet, you’re leading your family down a path of being mindful of their food waste. Plus, it’s safe for kids to use too!
But why does this matter?
There’s a massive food waste problem.
As you likely already know, landfilling food scraps is simply unsustainable. But how big is this issue? Here’s the breakdown:
168 million tonnes
of food waste is created in North America every year.
~50%
of that is generated at the household level.
Food waste in landfills is 30x more harmful
to the environment than the CO₂ emissions from vehicles.
Composting isn't for everyone—and even if you are composting, what do you do in the winter season if you’re in a region that gets too cold?
We know that food scraps are inevitable and we knew that there could be a better way to manage them.
Meet the FoodCycler®—
An appliance that transforms your food scraps.
Now you can take the work out of your food waste in 3 easy steps
1
Add your food scraps
Place your food scraps, leftovers, and more into the FoodCycler bucket. You can add almost any type of food waste, from stubborn oyster shells to smelly onion skins.
2
Load & press start
The patented Vortech™ grinding system breaks down even the toughest food waste in just a few hours.
3
Feed the Earth
The result is a dry, nutrient-rich soil amendment (Foodilizer™) that can be used in your plants. No more stinky garbage. Even if you throw the by-product away, you still dramatically reduce your food waste volume by up to 90%.
Here's what one of the reviews say:
I am not going to lie. I was skeptical on how this would actually work and if it would be worthwhile.
I can say that my opinion has been radically altered just after having used the product in the short time I have had it. We fill the bucket once a day with food scraps and when we wake up in the morning, we have dirt!
I'm really happy with how easy it is to use, there is no odour and it is a quiet machine. I've already recommended it to several family members and friends.

Food waste may be inevitable in a busy family kitchen, but its destination is entirely up to us. Choosing to dry and reuse those scraps—rather than bury them in landfill—shrinks your household’s footprint, keeps the kitchen fresh, and quietly teaches kids that everyday habits matter.
Whether you decide that a FoodCycler belongs on your counter or you’re still weighing the possibilities, each peel, crust, and leftover is a chance to write a better story for your home and for the planet your children will inherit.
