LEADING THE CHANGE TOWARDS ZERO FOOD WASTE
Mentari Alam EKO (M) Sdn Bhd, or MAEKO, is the brainchild of three passionate individuals focused on solving one of the biggest problems facing our planet - the Food Waste issue. Every day, HUGE amounts of food scraps (or even full meals!) are being wasted in Malaysia, taking up space in landfills and poisoning our Earth.
The founders of MAEKO knew there was a simple solution - composting. Combining their expertise from the fields of biotechnology, mechanical engineering and marketing, MAEKO was born with the singular intent of helping the country - and the world - achieve ZERO FOOD WASTE.
After close to a decade of Research and Development, MAEKO is proud to have created the most cutting-edge composting technology in the ASEAN region. Our patented technology has been applied in our comprehensive range of composters for use in any industry that produces food waste.
Our presence is already being felt in many industries, such as:
- • Hotels - With hotels having banquets almost every day, plenty of food waste can be composted
- • Supermarkets and F&B Outlets - Old or wasted food can be composted instead of thrown away
- • Factories, Municipalities & Educational Institutions - When meals are provided at the canteens, food courts and cafeterias where plenty of organic waste is created
- • Hospitals - All hospitals provided food daily, much of which is often not eaten and wasted.
Vision
To lead a fully circular, zero-food-waste future by integrating prevention, composting, biodigesters and waste-to-energy across the food chain—and making every outcome visible and verifiable through IoT-enabled carbon tracking and ESG-ready reporting.
Mission
To equip businesses, communities and households with smart, scalable food-waste technologies and a unified data platform that automates resource recovery and energy generation while delivering real-time, auditable carbon insights and ESG reporting aligned to global standards.
