Bio24 Table-to-farm Preview at SWITCH 2019
Today, TRIA showcased a preview of the Bio24 program alongside REAL IMPACT, at Singapore Week of Innovation and TeCHnology (SWITCH). We illustrated how we are able to achieve a “table-to-farm solution” by turning post-consumption waste from restaurants, inclusive of disposable dining foodware and food waste, into nutrient-rich compost within 24 hours in our digestors. No segregation needed ;).
A cross-industry panel was held to discuss how the food service industry can take progressive steps towards zero waste. Invited speakers to the event comprise of Mr Ted Tan, Deputy CEO at Enterprise Singapore, Dr Sandeep Kumar, Co-founder Real Impact, Mr Andrew Chan, Managing Director of Soup Spoon and Mr Emmanual Tay of WMRAS,
SWITCH is the foremost global platform for deep tech ecosystems – where innovators, investors and collaborators connect.

Temasek Poly ACI-ASConference 2019
On Friday, Centre for Urban Sustainability (CUS) of Temasek Polytechnic’s School of Applied Science (ASC) and the American Concrete Institute-Singapore Chapter (ACI-SC) jointly organised a conference with the theme “Sustainability for a Better Tomorrow” where TRIA took part in and also played a practical role in composting the foodware and foodwaste.
The event gathered local and overseas technical experts to discuss development of urban solutions and sustainability to design and build environmentally sustainable and liveable cities; research, innovation and technology to optimize liveable space and built environment to lower energy consumption and carbon footprint; and promoting innovation, sustainability and productivity in concrete technology and applications.
Very pleased to do our part in this conference both in contributing our knowledge and experience while actually practicing what we preach in composting the foodware and foodwaste.
