From Waste to Energy
Cutshop® is committed to leading a green movement in Auckland to manage waste better. This smart move of purchasing a grinder and briquette press changed how Cutshop® deals with waste and is also helping to reduce the amount of trash that goes into landfills.
By acknowledging the environmental impact of waste, it set out on a path of environmental responsibility and innovation.
Converting Waste into Opportunity
Over the span of just half a year, Cutshop® has processed 34 tonnes of offcut waste materials. Previously destined for landfills, these materials now find new life as valuable resources. By utilizing the briquette press, Cutshop® has effectively transformed waste that would have otherwise contributed to landfill overflow into a valuable commodity.
Empowering Sustainable Energy
One of the most innovative and commendable aspects of Cutshop® endeavour is the creation of a biofuel source from the compressed waste produced by the briquette press.
This biofuel can be used as an alternative energy source, particularly for companies that rely on boilers to generate heat and power.
By transforming waste into a clean and efficient biofuel, Cutshop® is not only reducing dependence on fossil fuels but also offering an eco-friendly alternative that contributes to the fight against climate change.
“We saw this technology 5 years ago at AWISA and knew it was something we needed to do to stop putting all our offcuts into landfill. Now it is going to a good cause – energy.”
The pioneering approach of Cutshop® to waste management - through recycling tonnes of waste to produce briquette press - is a remarkable demonstration of a commitment to environmental stewardship.
By efficiently repurposing offcut waste materials and converting them into valuable biofuel resources, Cutshop® is setting a precedent for responsible waste management and clean energy generation.
As we navigate a world in dire need of sustainable solutions, Cutshop® initiative stands as a testament to the transformative potential of forward-thinking and eco-conscious businesses.
