Food Waste Management & Disposal Solutions
A cost-effective, environmentally responsible way to eliminate food waste from your business.
Food is the heaviest, wettest part of your general waste, and general waste is charged by weight. Pulpmaster takes it out of the skip and out of the kitchen: staff tip food scraps into a compact stainless steel unit, it becomes pulp in seconds, and J.J. Richards collects the pulp to make organic fertiliser and renewable energy. Fewer bin lifts, fewer liners, lower disposal bills, nothing to landfill.

How Pulpmaster works
From the caddy in the kitchen to fertiliser on a farm. The whole system in two minutes.
The process
Four steps from plate scrapings to paddock
Collect in the kitchen
Staff scrape solids and liquids into 23-litre Pulpmaster caddies at the prep bench. Light enough to carry, small enough that they can't be overfilled.
Tip and press Auto Start
Empty the caddy into the stainless drum. The lid closes itself, the waste is macerated into pulp and pumped to a sealed holding tank. No smell, no vermin, no liners.
We collect the pulp
The machine reads its own tank level. As it nears full it notifies J.J. Richards, who schedule a tanker to pump it out. You never lift a bin.
Fertiliser and energy
Pulp goes to organics recycling facilities and anaerobic digesters. It comes out as organic fertiliser for Australian farms and biogas for renewable electricity.
Our products
Two machines, one caddy system, one outcome
Every Pulpmaster converts food waste into pulp that J.J. Richards collects for fertiliser and renewable energy. The difference is where the machine sits and who feeds it.

Pulpmaster benefits
Cheaper, safer, cleaner.
Businesses in accommodation, hospitality, health, aged care, retail and food processing use Pulpmaster to save money and time in the kitchen while diverting every kilogram of food waste from landfill.
Cheaper than traditional waste removal
No food in the weight-charged general skip, no bin liners to buy, less paid time carrying rubbish.
Reduced OH&S exposure
No heavy bins dragged outside, no leaking liners, no oil carried across wet floors.
Clean, tidy and vermin proof
Sealed stainless steel with a self-cleaning cycle. No odour, no flies, no rodents at the bin bay, less grease in the sewer.
Space saving and quick
One compact unit replaces multiple bins, and a 70-litre load is gone in about 30 seconds.
Low contamination
Food separated at source keeps cardboard and glass clean and worth recycling.
Great for the environment
Food waste diverted from landfill and converted to organic fertiliser and electricity. Numbers you can put in a sustainability report.

In their words
What Pulpmaster customers say
Managing our waste here is a big part of our venue. The Pulpmaster eliminates staff carting and carrying heavy waste for disposal, and the organic waste is reutilised outside the venue.
The confidence I’ve got in JJ’s comes from having people we can contact to fix or replace something, or act quickly when we need an urgent service. Having that faith in the company makes us feel better about our day-to-day trade.
