Welcome to Table2Ground™
Your NextGen On-Site Commercial Composting Solution
Our mission is to provide innovative solutions that divert food waste from landfills and support sustainably responsible food waste producers.
Table2Ground™ (T2G™) will change the way commercial food waste producers dispose of their waste. Right now, most of it goes to landfills, making up 40-50% of the waste stream and generating 3.8 pounds of greenhouse gases for every pound that decomposes in landfills – globally, totaling 67 million metric tons/year. That’s not sustainable!
Food waste in a landfill can take months or years to decompose and produces methane, a gas 30 times more potent than CO2, that is released into the atmosphere, trapping heat, and contributing to climate change. The T2G “Plan, Plug, & Play™” NextGen decentralized on-site ISO-certified commercial waste management solutions divert food waste from landfills in a 24-hour cycle. We call it “The Grounder™”. Our technologically advanced aerobic composting machines are equipped with custom sensors, process controllers, and are ISO 14001:2015, ISO 45001:2015, and ISO 9001:2015 certified with a proven track record since 1988. It achieves a remarkable 80-90% volume reduction at the source itself. Thus, minimizing methane gas emissions, removing the need to haul food waste off-site, and producing nutrient-rich compost. This compost can then be used locally, creating a sustainable resource for communities.
You’ll also have superior service and results tracking so you can measure your impact.
How “The Grounder™” Works
The Grounder™ systematically transforms food waste into valuable compost within a 24-hour cycle, reducing volume by 80-90%. Whether you're adding browns or enzymes, the process is straightforward, ensuring efficient and eco-friendly waste diversion.
Process Overview:
Food waste is loaded into the Grounder’s™ shredder chute, followed by browns or enzymes. This step ensures the carbon-nitrogen balance essential for effective composting. The heater is initiated, allowing you to fine-tune the temperature or humidity through the user-friendly PLC for composting results. As the temperature and humidity are adjusted, the composting cycle happens. The Grounder™ autonomously runs its 24-hour cycle, and automatically turns off when complete. Just place a bin below the unloading door, unlatch it and the waste is expelled with the push of a button.

Estimate Your Food Waste
The first step in understanding what to do with food waste is understanding how much your business actually creates. You can call us to do a full food audit, but to get a quick read on it we recommend the RIT/New York State Pollution Prevention Institute interactive tool that can estimate how much food waste your business might be generating based on data from similar businesses.
