This third-quarter achievement is a huge credit to their incredible team’s dedication and commitment in achieving their objectives despite a changing socioeconomic backdrop. They’re continuing to see excellent growth in their Maritime/Cruise sector while also expanding in Higher Education, Retail, and other areas. Furthermore, given the resolution of the challenges that impacted sales in prior quarters, they achieved outstanding success in their Martinsburg Plant, which is functioning with stronger, more effective outcomes.

Their work in the Higher Education vertical has resulted in more digester orders from prestigious colleges across the East Coast as they strive to achieve broad sustainability targets such as boosting landfill diversion and lowering carbon footprint. They’ve also collaborated with these schools to give cutting-edge research and educational incentives for students to obtain a different insight on the influence of their solutions on a variety of climate-related issues, waste management, and new technologies to reach sustainability goals.
