An upperclass bin system for the disposal of organic household waste.







Combin is an integration between composting and worm farming, breaking down organic matter and resulting in a nutrient rich fertiliser.
Combin works by having two seperate compartments ( worm farm and compost heap) which processes organic matter into fertiliser. One side is a deep containment while the other is four stacking drawers
The drawers sit upon each other and are are pivoted by an external pole which allows three of the drawers to swing open. Each drawer is a step in the worm farm process. It begins by removing the LED planter, which acts as a lid. Organic matter is placed in the top section of the drawer side to which the worms will move up towards from the bellow drawers. They navigate their way through each layer by the drilled holes in the bottom of each drawer. The holes also allow the worm castings to fall through the bottom layers for your collection. These can then be put into your garden.
The other side is a composting system which works similarly to the worm farm. However composting is a natural cycle ( it will break down organic matter on its' own ). The cycle works best and faster with turning of the soil which can be done through open hatches in the side of the compost bin. The benefit with turning the soil as well is that it will result in an oderless compost heap.
