Shrinks food waste by 90% in just 2 hours. No smell, no mess. Large capacity. Low energy. For cleaner kitchens and a greener planet.
Managing food waste in a modern kitchen can be a frustrating daily chore, often involving unpleasant smells, messy bins, and the guilt of contributing to landfills. The search for a solution typically leads to traditional compost piles that take months to yield results or bulky food recyclers that are slow, noisy, and sometimes ineffective. What if you could have a sleek, countertop device that transforms your kitchen scraps into a dry, odorless, and eco friendly material in just a couple of hours, completely changing your relationship with waste? TRhino, a company passionate about simple and effective environmental solutions, is launching LOOPii, a revolutionary food recycler now live on Kickstarter.
Project Overview
Name and Creator: LOOPii: From Kitchen Scraps to Garden Gold by TRhino.
What It Is: LOOPii is a compact, countertop food recycler that turns kitchen scraps into a dry, odorless, and sterile material in a little as two hours. It is the world first to use an air heat technology combined with blades to reduce food waste volume by up to 90 percent. The device is designed to be a mess free, low energy solution for creating a garden ready fertilizer.
Key Features
World First Air Heat Technology: Unlike traditional food recyclers that use direct heat, LOOPii utilizes a new air heat technology. This method is faster, more powerful, and more energy efficient, completing a full cycle in just about two hours.
Shrinks Waste by 90 Percent: The device dries and grinds food scraps, reducing their volume dramatically. This means you will go from needing daily trash runs to just one a week, making waste management far more convenient.
Odor Free Operation: LOOPii features a dual stage deodorizing system. It uses an activated carbon filter to trap large odor molecules and a low concentration ozone layer to actively break down any remaining smells. The result is a completely odorless process and a final output that has a light, natural scent.
Large Capacity in a Compact Design: Despite having a small footprint, LOOPii offers a generous 5.3 liter capacity per cycle. This is large enough to handle a week's worth of food waste from a family of three, and it can process a wide variety of materials, including chicken bones, corn husks, and sticky foods like rice.
Quiet and Energy Efficient: The LOOPii operates at a low volume of under 45dB, which is quieter than a normal conversation. It also consumes as little as 0.5 kWh per cycle in quick mode, making it an energy conscious choice for your home.
Simple, App Free Design: The creators believe great products should be simple and timeless. LOOPii operates with a one touch button and does not require an app, which eliminates potential malfunctions and obsolescence from software updates.

The Idea
Concept: The core idea behind LOOPii is to provide a clean, fast, and simple solution to a global problem: food waste. The creators, with a background in environmental engineering, wanted to bring professional level sustainability solutions to every household. They aimed to create a device that not only minimizes waste but also reclaims it as a valuable resource, closing the loop from kitchen to garden.
Inspiration: The inspiration for LOOPii came from the creators' personal frustrations with traditional composting and existing food recyclers. They saw a need for a product that was truly fast, hygienic, and odorless. By innovating with a new air heat technology and a dual stage deodorizing system, they were able to create a unique product that addresses all the common pain points of food waste management, making it easy for anyone to make a positive impact on the environment.
