Everyday, we wake up to the reality that society’s CO2 footprint is a major threat to humanity — and the Sustane team is passionate and galvanized to do something about it.

Sustane was founded with one purpose in mind: to create a clean and sustainable world for ourselves and for future generations.

Today, Sustane’s technology is able to recover and repurpose almost 90% of the garbage that would have ordinarily ended up in a landfill. In our vision for the future, Sustane and our proprietary processes will do so much more.

As we continue to challenge existing methods and develop new, more efficient and environmentally responsible pathways to re-use our vital resources, we plan to play a role in moving the global needle on greenhouse gas reduction by removing up to 10% of CO2 from the global emissions equation.

How will we do it? Through vital partnerships to improve food security, preserve fossil fuels, reduce plastic pollution, free up land and reverse deforestation, and practically eliminate waste leachates — one community at a time.
