Our concept
The business concept of Edelmark is transforming bioresources into new environmentally friendly products both in solid and liquid form with “zero waste”. The products can be used for soil amendment purposes and as organic fertilizers. Edelmark aims at
- Promoting the concept of Circular economy by employing effective vermicomposting process for transforming biowastes to organic fertilizers with zero waste
- Providing organic fertilizers for the growing organic farming activities in Norway and other parts of the world for the production of healthy food
- Becoming a reliable partner to address the question of sustainability of actors that handle bioresources by sharing knowledge and providing consultancy service
We are sustainable
Edelmark is now collaborating with a biogas plant and testing its effective vermicomposting in solid bio-waste to produce organic fertilizer in the form of vermicompost and liquid fertilizer. Edelmark creates values by using biowaste, that usually gets dumped by biogas plants, as a raw material. Edelmarks solutions solve the economic and sustainability challenges of the biogas plants associated with bio-waste.
Edelmarks solution will improve the efficiency and profitability of biogas plants by utilizing the biowaste as a raw material for the effective and efficient vermicomposting process the company has developed.
