Put to good re-use

Recycled mulch might seem simple, but to consistently produce the highest-quality product in large volumes requires a meticulous process. ResourceCo in Victoria has that process down to a fine art.

- 

Too the uninitiated, mulch is just leftover plant material.

To recycling specialists ResourceCo, it's an important resource which needs to be manufactured to exacting standards in line with industry needs.

It's also an opportunity to give a second life to material which would otherwise be headed for landfill.

Quality control

Garreth Dorey, Sales Manager at ResourceCo, is as passionate about the need to recycle and reuse as everyone Landscape Contractor has spoken to at ResourceCo, and he was happy to spend some time running through the systems that make the company's recycled mulch such a premium and consistent product.

"ResourceCo takes in a range of different raw materials," he told Landscape Contractor's wide-eyed editor. "We accept timbers like oriented strand board (OSB), plywood, hardwoods, freight pallets - including the corner blocks - pine, packing timbers, and most offcuts.

"We don't accept treated timber and we don't accept painted timber."
