Composting centre - Helmdon

A new composting centre in Helmdon

As more and more environmental regulations come into force around the world, organisations across the USA and Europe have turned to Veldeman for high quality, competitively priced solutions that are rust-free and can be hermetically sealed.

We recently fulfilled an order from the Helmdon facility for three new tension fabric structures (width 30m) with automatic cargo doors. Each TFS was needed to handle every aspect of the composting process: shredding kitchen and garden waste; housing pre-treatment anaerobic digestion equipment; and storing dry materials such as glass, paper, metals and plastic prior to use elsewhere.

The translucent sheeting provides a natural working environment, while the membrane is completely sealed at ground level to ensure full control over internal conditions. Horizontal and vertical tensioning of the membrane eradicates any flapping too. All told, the new structures provide all the advantages of a permanent facility with the added bonus of faster delivery and more competitive pricing. As well as added flexibility when it comes to relocation or repurposing.
