Sankey, leading UK manufacturer of garden and horticultural products, works alongside gardeners in protecting the environment and supporting you to achieve a beautiful garden.
The Ecomax Compost Bin is one of the UK’s best selling compostors and it’s easy to see why. The flat back ensures this compost bin fits neatly in your garden space, the wider base that guarantees maximum microbial action, and the easy action hatch door to access your homemade compost. More than this, Sankey’s Ecomax Compost Bin is produced from a minimum of 75% post consumer waste and is fully recyclable. All from a company that practices what it preaches.
Producing compost helps the environment by the recycling of up to 40% of household waste and provides your soil with the best nutrients available.

The resulting nutrient rich compost will improve soil condition, break down heavy clay and add water and nutrients, all ensuring your garden is in the best possible condition. Ecologically sound, environmentally aware and financially rewarding; composting is one of the simplest and most valuable garden tasks to complete this year.
