Compost Turners
Composting is an important aspect of waste management throughout the world. Product from compost operations can be seen in various applications such as:
- Topdressing for yards and golf courses
- Compost socks, which are mesh tubes filled with compost that will slow and filter water on a construction site, capturing soil and reducing erosion
- Erosion control on disturbed areas such as construction sites, development (and planting) projects and exposed stream banks
- Organic fertilizer or soil conditioners
Vermeer compost equipment is designed to process up to 4000 cu yd (3058.2 cu m) of compost per hour depending on the type and size of the turner. Drum-style windrow turners feature a horizontal steel drum with flails that aerate the compost windrow.
