Root

Compost directly into your sink

Say goodbye to garbage disposals

Say goodbye to garbage disposals and messy bins. Root makes food waste clean, simple, and sustainable.

These solids are seamlessly collected in a sealed, stick-free container. Innovative carbon technology blocks odors from entering your kitchen, and our patented design stops fruit flies from calling your sink home.

All your food waste is kept out of your plumbing and into a sealed and odorless bin. No more added strain on your septic system or worrying about what goes down your drain.

It's time for Root.

Divert 3,000+ pounds

Based on typical use, each Root unit will divert over 3,325 pounds of methane emissions per home. This is the equivalent of powering five entire homes for a year. Root makes sustainability simple.

Pre-Order

Seamless kitchen scrap management.

Safe for Septic

Root was designed intentionally to keep septic fields cleaner by significantly limiting the solids that go down your drain. Many plumbers warn against using a garbage disposal on a septic field. No plumbers warn against using Root on septic (in fact, they encourage it).

Clear Counters

Keep your kitchen counters clean and free of clutter. Without the need for counter-top bins, you can use your kitchen space for the things that actually matter. Root allows you to keep all your food waste solutions under the sink.

Quiet and Easy

Garbage disposals are easy to use, but we're all a little scared of them. Even if you aren't, the noise they cause can be headache-inducing. Root is quieter than a dishwasher, and can recognize non-food items in your drain. No more worrying and no more covering your ears.

Expertly designed to work with your kitchen.

Compact Design

With its com[pact design and universal sink mount, Root is simple to retrofit into existing kitchens.

Non-food Item Detection

Root can detect any large non-food items entering the drain, stopping and allowing you to safely remove the item before starting up again.

Self Cleaning

Root’s stick-free surfaces and patented technology provide a way to clean itself as you use it, so you don’t have to. Each part is also designed to be removed and machine washable if preferred.

Full Control

Our mobile app gives you full control of your unit, along with usage tracking and fun insights! You can also run special modes such as Cleaning Mode and check to make sure you are on the latest update.
