Food waste disposers are an environmentally responsible alternative to transporting food waste to landfills. And they can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Food waste converts to bio-solids at the waste treatment plant and can be recycled and applied as fertilizer. Biogases can be captured and recycled as an energy source.

InSinkErator® may make improvements and/or changes in the specifications at any time, in its sole discretion, without notice or obligation and further reserves the right to change or discontinue models.
