About us

Monty Compost Co is a Brisbane-based start-up, founded in early 2019. We’re dedicated to making the world sustainable and circular using the power of compost. Yeah, yeah, we know it doesn’t have the best rep but recycling all our organic waste into natural fertiliser through composting could offset over 5% of total global emissions!

We believe technology can get everyone doing it so we developed Monty, an IoT compost monitoring device that tracks and analyses your composting for custom management insights. These are sent through our app, which also offer heaps of other cool compost features.

If you want to know more about what we’re doing, check out our website or socials - Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.
