Hungry Caterpillar
Our fully autonomous machines process high-risk organic waste at the edge. Designed for MUDs with up to 200 residents, schools and restaurant precincts, the Hungry Caterpillar is also suited to remote communities such as mining camps and military bases.
Autonomous Operation for Consistent Results
At its core, the Hungry Caterpillar leverages autonomous technology to optimise the composting process. Equipped with advanced sensors and a proprietary optimisation algorithm, the machine continuously monitors and adjusts conditions within the composting chamber. This ensures that even the most challenging high-risk organic materials are processed efficiently, producing high-quality compost every time.
