What materials are used in the SUPERCOMP plastic composters, and how environmentally friendly are these?

The SUPERCOMP is manufactured in a distance process from food-grade recycled plastic (polypropylene) under addition of lime for extra strengthening. Nevertheless, a certain elasticity remains, which in turn balances the acting forces and diminishes the danger the plastic tearing under extreme weather conditions (hard plastic easily tears in extreme heat). The lateral “”stayers”” are reinforced, and continuous lamellae further strengthen the construction so maximum stability is given. When full, a SUPERCOMP is rock solid, so even strong winds cannot mess with it. Polypropylene is considered the most environmentally friendly plastic and is fully recyclable.

The clips are made of polyamide. The floor plate is made of weather-resistant polypropylene (1.500 grams per square meter) and is 8 mm thick.”
