About Us – DIRECT COMPOST SOLUTIONS

Our story

How it all began

Direct Compost Solutions Pty Ltd is a privately owned Australian company established in 2013 to bring to the public an easy way to compost all your kitchen waste.

The journey began in 2009 discussing composting with a friend and an easy way she composted her kitchen waste. At the time there was nothing on the market for in-ground composting in Australia, and no one knew about using Soldier Fly Larvae for composting — not even me. I discovered this after four years of testing and experimenting, and realised they were faster and more efficient than worms. Thus the final design of the COMPOT (Compost in a Pot) was achieved and launched onto the market on the 1st of March 2013.

How Eco-Eze Compot Works

Our vision

Our vision is to get as many people as possible recycling all their kitchen waste directly into their gardens instead of sending it off to council tips. This would make a significant difference to the planet if everyone composted in their backyards, even if they aren't gardeners. Councils could reduce the number of times a truck has to pass by a property to collect waste, reducing the carbon footprint and each person's costs as well.

The company continues to make inroads into educating people about a different way to compost all their kitchen waste — through garden trade fairs, talks to garden clubs and retirement villages, and 'how to' videos online.

The company is Australian owned by Victoria Brun, the designer of the eco-eze Compot, and the product is currently manufactured in Australia. We prefer to use virgin material that can be recycled at the end of its useful life (roughly 10 years plus), because recycled plastic is not as durable and may leach chemicals into the soil — something we don't want occurring in a vegetable garden or around edible plants.

We stand by our product and offer a money-back guarantee if your waste does not turn to soil. Whatever you do, it will eventually turn your awful waste to awesome soil and amazing plants.
