Introducing ZD1

We compacted an industrial-strength material processing machine and added the power of automation to perform your food waste management.

Overview

Simple but Modern

ZD1 is designed with practicality and ease of use in mind.

How it works

Step One

Dispose of your organic materials in the ZD1.

Fill the small storage receptacle (which comes with ZD1) with food waste as it accumulates throughout the day.

Step Two

ZD1 will process the waste into blocks and package it in our bio-wrappers.

The contents move cleanly through ZD1, automatically being ground, sealed into compact blocks, and stacked in the internal storage receptacle.

Step Three

ZD1 can hold up to Four blocks. When full, remove blocks using the internal wheeled receptacle.

ZD1 needs to be emptied infrequently because our volume reduction allows ZD1 to hold up to four times the volume of a standard bin. Roll the internal wheelie out when it is time to empty the machine.

Step Four

Place blocks for collection by your waste carter.

Our storage solutions allow blocks to be stacked neatly curbside for collection.

Compact Size

Roughly the size of a tall kitchen trash can ~ 15"x15"x42"

Energy Efficient

Low-speed, high-torque performance with low energy usage

Automatic

Trash goes in, and blocks come out—no manual operations.

Human - Centered

Hygienic and Safe

Small Receptacle

Use the countertop receptacle to transfer organic material from your kitchen into the ZD1. The countertop receptacle provides a barrier between the user and ZD1, securing ZD1's inner mechanism from outside exposure while providing the user a touchless experience to reduce contamination.

double safeguard

ZD1 will only engage when the receptacle is attached. The receptacle's detachable bottom automatically opens up, disposing of the contents into ZD1's inner.

Touchless operations

ZD1's built-in indicator system alerts you of notifications and status updates as the machine functions via your mobile device, providing an utterly touchless interaction with the machine, ensuring maximum hygiene and eliminating any possibility of material contamination within your living space.

Component Deep Dive

Double-shear Two-shaft Shredder

A low-speed, high-torque, two-shaft, rotary shear shredder engineered and built to efficiently process a wide variety of difficult-to-shred materials. Modular designs allow you to remove the component from the machine for cleaning. Dishwasher safe.

Vertical Form Fill Sealing (VFFS) system

Our Vertical Form Fill Seal (VFFS) system automatically creates, fills, and seals blocks filled with compacted waste from a continuous roll of bio-based wrapper.

automated Pneumatic-powered heat sealers

Robot jaw automated pneumatic-powered microplate heat sealer is designed for precise, repeatable sealing with excellent seal integrity.

Fiberglass 36-gallon storage Compartment

Heavy-duty, ADA-compliant wheeled storage receptacle made from corrosion-resistant fiberglass to hold blocks within the ZD1 awaiting collection securely. Wheels allow you to move blocks from ZD1 to the collection point quickly.

Accessories

01
Small storage receptacle

The small storage receptacle is designed to collect organic material on a smaller scale. Collect your material in this receptacle and empty it into the ZD1 at night or when it's full.

02
Large storage receptacle

The large storage receptacle is designed to hold blocks awaiting collections securely. It is compatible with robotic arm collections, fully automating the collection process.

03
curbside entrapment

We designed the curbside entrapment as an alternative to permanent dumpsters or black garbage bags typically placed curbside for collection. Curbside entrapments securely hold our large storage receptacles while they await collection and are compatible with robotic arm side loaders. They are designed to seamlessly blend into the environment without obstructing access to sidewalks and curbside.
