The Monty Journey
2019
Monty's Beginning
Monty Compost Co, then EarthOffset, started as a university project in 2019 when our Founder Ashley how composting can offset so many negative environmental implications. Monty won the Shane Chidgzey Young Entrepreneurs Prize at The University of Queensland's Accelerator Pitch Night.
2020
First Prototype
Inventing a compost device isn't easy! We learnt that through many prototypes and testing until we figured out the perfect design solution for an MVP product.
2021
Monty Redesign
Monty went through a lot during the first trial and this enabled us to redesign Monty Monitor to get an MVP Monty out to validate the product with some savvy composters!
2022
Manufacturing Monty
We spent all of 2022 working with Australian manufacturers to build the Monty you know today! During this year, we went through many app iterations to make sure that your composting experience with Monty was as smooth as possible.
Today
Monty Movement
We've been able to expand Monty internationally and work with so many amazing composters who are supporting the Monty journey. We still have piles and piles of plans to expand and making composting as awesome as ever with Monty!
Why Compost?
We founded Monty upon learning about the detrimental impacts food waste has on our climate and how that can all be reversed with compost.
Composting wields a remarkable potential to revolutionise our environmental footprint. By diverting organic waste away from landfills, composting significantly reduces methane emissions, a greenhouse gas with a staggering climate impact. This practice enriches soil quality, enhancing its ability to retain water, support plant growth, and sequester carbon from the atmosphere.
Composting offers a direct way to offset emissions. When organic waste breaks down in landfills, it releases methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Composting prevents this by converting waste into nutrient-rich soil while minimising methane production. This helps combat climate change and promotes a more sustainable path forward.
Composting holds the key to a greener future, where waste becomes a resource and sustainability is a way of life. By converting kitchen scraps and yard waste into nutrient-rich compost, we close the loop on the cycle of consumption and disposal. This small act reverberates through ecosystems, enriching soil, conserving water, and reducing the need for harmful chemicals. As we embrace composting, we pave the way for healthier gardens, cleaner air, and a planet that thrives alongside us.
