Sustainability takes a lot of crap – food and yard waste too, for that matter.

That’s what Dr. John Paul believes. After working as a waste management scientist for seven years at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Dr. Paul founded Transform Compost Systems in Abbotsford’s industrial sector to do just that – transform waste into an economically sustainable fertilizer solution.

His company does it through equipment innovation. Transform currently has its gloved hands in over 15 different major projects across North America, helping companies cut down on pesticides and keep organic waste out of landfills. It’s all done with an eye on the future. Transform knows that our air, water, and soil need to be protected today in order to serve us tomorrow.

Cities and industries alike are taking advantage of Transform’s groundbreaking green-friendly technologies. Thanks to its Airfloor aeration system and Supreme EnviroProcessor mixers – just two of the company’s many capable tools – Transform has assured its processing rates reach nearly 400,000 tonnes of waste per year.

It also provides the training. Facilities desiring an up-to-speed workforce should look into Transform’s hands-on operator training course, taught by Dr. Paul himself. Composting fundamentals, equipment basics, and insights into legislation and bylaws are on offer, and a visit to the wastewater treatment plant in Kent provides a valuable overview of how the pieces fit together.

They start with the old and make it all dirty and new.
