Surge Sustainability
We believe we can contribute to humanity living sustainably on Earth, because we know waste is a resource!
“Be the change you want to see” is what drives us.
We take proven technologies, adapt them to and implement them in the developing world. These technologies are lacking here but are hugely impactful to livelihoods, the planet and business.
We embody “built in Africa for Africa” and client–orientated solutions.
What we offer
We offer biogas solutions as well as municipal solid waste treatment plants.
Biogas
Biogas is a proven technology which converts organic waste into renewable energy and organic fertiliser. We offer a range of solutions, from modular biogas plants to bespoke engineered large systems.
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW)
Considering municipal solid waste to be a “waste” is outdated. We offer solutions to extract value and resources from MSW, ranging from the simplest manual sorting lines to complex facilities.
Why work with us
We understand that importing concepts from overseas and trying to directly implement them in Africa will not necessarily work. We take what works, adapt what does not and thus offer solutions suitable for a range of conditions in Africa.
Being resourceful is our core value, meaning our clients receive great value for money.
We understand your specific needs (technically & commercially) and offer solutions that ensure that your project is successful and that you, our client, are happy in the long run.
Biogas and municipal solid waste are our core business, thus we understand them in depth. Benefit from our experience.
