The Puntacana Resort and Club in the Dominican Republic implemented an on-site composting system to process food and yard waste from its 2,000+ homes, hotels, and airport. By combining in-vessel and aerated static pile (ASP) composting, the hybrid system, operational since winter 2025, initially handles 1,400 tons per year with potential to expand to 3,000+ tons. The project reduces landfill use, lowers greenhouse gas emissions, produces high-quality compost for resort and local agriculture, and serves as a scalable model for sustainable waste management on the island.
