Auckland Council is excited to announce a 20-year partnership with kiwi-owned and operated Ecogas Ltd to process the food scraps that will be collected kerbside across urban Auckland.

Not since recycling came to our streets has there been such an innovation in the way we reduce waste.

Andrew Fisher, Managing Director of both EcoStock Supplies and EcoGas Limited Partnership won the Sustainability Superstar Award at the NZI New Zealand Sustainable Business Network Awards 2019.

We are very excited that our partner EcoStock has been announced a finalist for 2 award catagerories in the 2019 NZI Sustainable Business Network Awards!

Andrew Fisher, Managing Director of EcoStock Supplies is a finalist for the Sustainability Superstar award, sponsored by Enviro-Mark Solutions.

Ecogas has received a multi-million dollar boost from the Government's provincial growth fund.

Seven million dollars will help develop a project which aims to see New Zealand powered on the food we waste. 

The announcement that Ecogas will collect central North Island food wastes and process them at Reporoa into energy and bio-fertiliser will provide an example that all communities across New Zealand could follow said the Bioenergy Association.
