Earth Cycle is a family-run, Southern England-based business that transforms local green waste, such as council “green bin” collections, tree trimmings, and landscape cuttings, into high-quality, peat-free composts, soils, and mulches. They follow a carefully controlled 14-week process: shredding, sanitising, stabilising, and screening the compost to PAS100 standards, with many products also certified organic by OF&G.

 

Each year, Earthcycle diverts around 100,000 tonnes of green waste from landfill, turning over 50,000 tonnes into nutrient-rich soil improvers. Their composts, ranging from no-dig and vegetable blends to soil conditioners and topsoil, improve soil structure, help retain water, suppress weeds, and support beneficial soil life.

 

 Core Values & Sustainability Ethos

• Zero peat, zero waste: Earthcycle’s products are 100% peat-free and made locally, reducing carbon footprint and protecting fragile peatland ecosystems 

• Closing the loop: They turn materials that would otherwise go to landfill into valuable resources, saving councils millions and cutting methane emissions 

• Certified quality: PAS100-compliant, Soil Association and OF&G approved, ensuring both safety and effectiveness.

• Community-focused: As a family-run business, Earthcycle supports local sustainability initiatives and values people and planet alongside profit.
