Garbage disposals can clog your pipes, use water, and are being phased out in some regions. Meanwhile, countertop compost bins can smell, get messy, and attract unwanted pests like fruit flies. And if you’re on septic, using a garbage disposal can contribute to costly system issues.
That’s why we created Root™, an under-sink food separator designed to make food waste management cleaner, simpler, and more sustainable.
Root’s patented system separates food solids as small as 2mm into a sealed, odour-proof bin under your sink while allowing liquids to safely drain into your plumbing. No blades. No food waste pushed through your pipes. No need to deal with a messy countertop bin.
Root is ideal for city dwellers navigating organic waste separation mandates, making food waste collection simple and convenient. It’s also septic-safe, making it a great solution for rural homes, off-grid properties, and anyone who wants a cleaner way to collect food scraps for backyard composting.
Root is packed with great features:
✅ Patented separation system that separates solids into a bin under your sink while allowing liquids to drain into pipes
✅ Carbon filter that prevents odours from escaping the bing
✅ Mobile app that can track how full the bin is in real-time and run automated cleaning cycles
✅ Sensors that can detect non-food items allowing you to safely remove them
✅ Sensors that can detect when there's too much liquid, preventing accidental flooding
✅ A cleverly designed handle that makes emptying the bin effortless
✅ A valve on the separator prevents pests such as fruit flies from entering the bin
