The Wormico Tower has a compact footprint designed for small spaces like balconies and patios. Each tier is approximately 420mm (16.5") in diameter, with modular stacking that allows you to increase capacity as needed. A typical setup uses 3–4 tiers depending on household size and composting needs.
The amount of food waste depends on the number of tiers, worm population, and conditions such as moisture and temperature. In ideal conditions, a 4-tier system can comfortably process food scraps from a 1–2 person household, with higher capacity as additional tiers are added over time.
Yes — the Wormico Tower is specifically designed for small living spaces. Its vertical, space-saving design makes it ideal for balconies, courtyards, and even indoor utility areas, allowing apartment dwellers to compost efficiently without needing a backyard.
When used correctly, the Wormico Tower is virtually odour-free. The layered airflow design, moisture control, and worm activity help break down food scraps quickly, preventing smells and discouraging pests. Like all compost systems, proper feeding and covering scraps keeps it clean and balanced.
The Wormico Tower is currently in the prototype and testing phase. Early versions are being trialled with selected users to gather feedback and refine the design. Public availability is planned after testing is complete, with updates shared through the email list.
