Planet Wimborne Green Festival 2026 - Visit to EcoSustainable Solutions Ltd

Have you ever wondered where all your, and the rest of Dorset’s, food waste goes, and what happens to it? And what about road-sweepings, wood and soil waste?

Now’s your chance to discover how Bournemouth-based company Eco Sustainable Solutions is finding innovative and ever more sustainable solutions to recycling and reusing waste products – and making a successful business of it. 

Peter Hardy, EcoSustainable Solutions Sales Director will show you how this is done at a visit to their site in Hurn, a Planet Wimborne Green Festival event on Thursday 15th October 2026 at 2pm at Chapel Lane, Parley, Christchurch, Dorset BH23 6BG.

The visit will be a walk around the site in a small group. You will need to be wearing walking boots (or similar).  They will provide high-visibility vests and hard hats.

It is a large operational site with significant vehicle movements, heavy machinery and uneven ground, so for safety reasons all visitors need to be comfortable walking around an active industrial environment and able to follow site instructions at all times.

The tour will take approximately one hour.

About Eco Sustainable Solutions

It is a Parley-based organic recycling and renewable energy company. Since Eco was founded in 1995, they’ve recycled over 4.3 million tonnes of organic material, preventing over 2 million tonnes of CO2e from being emitted to the atmosphere – that’s the equivalent to over quarter of a million return flights to Australia!

Over the past 30 years, Eco has led a variety of sustainable projects from organic waste recycling, producing green power from food waste to developing, at the time, the largest Solar Farm in Europe. They have been instrumental in developing and promoting organic recycling on a national level, to benefit on a global scale. Eco currently recycles over 250,000 tonnes of organic material each year, converting it into renewable energy or high-quality landscaping products, like certified composts, mulch, and nutrient rich topsoil. From sustainably leading the way in the development and implementation of renewable energy solutions to our passionate team constantly challenging themselves to make processes more carbon efficient, we will continue to fight climate change by constantly striving to be Always More Sustainable. You can find out more about Eco here: https://www.thisiseco.co.uk/
