Funding Support

Isolated communities may qualify for provincial support programs that help cover the cost of a local composting project.

Composting Solutions for Northern & Remote Communities

Isolated communities face a particular set of challenges in managing organic waste: long distances to the nearest treatment facility, high transport costs, limited infrastructure, and long, harsh winters. On-site composting turns that equation around, treating organic residuals close to where they’re generated instead of trucking, shipping or burning them.

BROME systems are engineered to keep the composting process stable through freeze-thaw cycles, and we’ve helped communities across northern Quebec put composting to work as a local, durable and cost-effective alternative to landfilling or incineration.

Built for the cold

Systems engineered for northern climates keep the composting process stable through freeze-thaw cycles and long winters.

Cut transport costs

Process organics on site instead of shipping them out or funding costly landfill and incineration infrastructure.

Circular economy, locally

Finished compost stays in the community, enriching local soil instead of leaving as waste.

Funding support available

Isolated communities may qualify for provincial support programs to help cover project costs.

Specifications & FAQ

Does this work without reliable road access?

Yes. BROME’s modular units are designed to be shipped and installed in remote locations, including communities that rely on winter roads, barge or air freight for delivery.

How does the system perform through the winter?

Units are engineered to keep the composting process at a stable temperature through freeze-thaw cycles, so operations continue through the coldest months rather than shutting down.

Is funding available to help cover the cost?

Isolated communities may be eligible for provincial support programs that offset part of the cost of a local composting project. Contact us and we can point you toward current funding options.

What kinds of organic waste can be composted?

Food waste, and other organic residuals common to a community or camp setting can typically be processed. Tell us what you’re generating and we’ll confirm fit and sizing.
