Planteconomics are predominantly driven by the gate fees charged, rather than thevalue of the end product (compost). The TEG process is an economic alternativeto landfill. The Silo Cage system, one of the few technologies in Europe capable of treatingthis waste, is a natural process producing compost as an end product, used as anexcellent soil conditioner that fertilises, retains moisture, provides structureand reduces the incidence of plant disease. TEG's Silo-Cages are housed inself-contained buildings, are not unsightly and are environmentally friendly. Customers include local authorities, waste management companies, foodprocessors, farmers and landowners. The Company's expanding market is driven byincreasingly stringent EU and UK legislation regulating the treatment anddisposal of organic waste. Statutory targets for the diversion of waste fromlandfill increase annually through to 2020, increasing TEG's market opportunityyear on year. The Waste Resource Action Programme estimates that 450 compostingplants will be needed by 2020 to satisfy local authority requirements alone, andthere is increasing demand from the private sector driven by ABP legislation. NOFCO is a marketing company specialising in the development of end markets forcompost products, an important aspect of all plant developments and key to localauthority development. The company has an expertise in the development ofagricultural and horticultural markets and this capability is to be provided tocustomers to enhance TEG's overall service offering.
