Description
Making your own compost at home is now a massive and environmentally beneficial garden trend, but compost bins can be unattractive even if useful and desirable. The Eco Hive Composter not only has some super functional advantages, but it is also makes an attractive addition to any garden.
Shaped like a traditional beehive and made from sustainable slow grown softwood from responsibly managed forests, this product is a winner from the start. The large 405 litre capacity and an open base that helps to produce internal heat which makes compost faster, ensures this is a really practical purchase.
The lid opens on either side and folds back on itself for easy removal, in order to churn the compost and allowing gardeners to easily harvest the compost from the lower hatch (500 x 270mm). Angled narrow gaps in the side panels allow air to circulate in the composter, whilst keeping the rain out.
The angled timber boards (90 x 20mm) keep the waste inside hidden and out of sight, as well as having a more modern aesthetic while aiding ventilation. The timber lid and side panels help to manage the temperature and moisture content, retaining the heat and ventilating the compost - which is needed in order to speed up decomposition.
The open base allows micro-organisms, worms and slugs from the ground to reach the waste heap, helping to break it down into a top quality compost.
