Becoming Shachar Group

Shachar Group was established as an industrial startup focused on advanced food waste recycling. As we grew, so did our services—adapting to diverse waste streams while staying true to our sustainability mission.

Technological Leap

We have reached a major milestone with the deployment of state of the art de-packaging technology — marking the next phase in refining our systems with more advanced, automated, and innovative processes and production lines.

Global Recognition

Recognition accelerated once leading multinational companies in Israel began implementing our recycling model — first Nestlé-Osem, then Unilever, followed by others who embraced the value of our sustainable solutions.

From Waste to Protein

We entered the Black Soldier Fly (BSF) sector, engaging with industry leaders and backing innovative startups—including Flying Spark and FreezeM—to upcycle food‑waste streams into sustainable protein, oil, and fertilizer.

EU Recognition

Shachar Group was recognized by the European Union under the European Investment Fund as a traditional industry company promoting innovative activities in the environmental sector.

Grant for Carbon Reduction

Shachar Group was recognized by the Israeli government for its contribution to carbon reduction efforts, receiving a grant for the establishment of the new plant focused on activities that help reduce carbon emissions.

Expanding Capacity

Recognizing the need for greater capacity, we began planning a new plant near our existing site in 2016. By 2020, the transition was completed, and the facility became fully operational, with expanded capacity for waste reception and processing.

Shachar Environmental System is Born

Shachar expanded its services with Shachar Environmental Systems, offering advanced treatment technologies—EPS compression, liquid de-watering, and in-container compaction—alongside on-site implementation and support, reducing disposal costs and increasing recycling efficiency.

Binge is born

With rising global interest in BSF, Shachar Group founded Binge Organics Ltd., focusing on BSF R&D. Its pilot facility develops food-waste feeding methods to produce protein and fat for feed. Binge Organics drives Israel’s BSF market and plays a key role in the national consortium established by the Israel Innovation Authority.

Meet the Weirdoh

The idea for Weirdoh emerged from our quest to enhance product value. This led to the creation of the world’s first truly sustainable modeling dough, crafted primarily from recycled, unconsumed stale bread.

Carbon Credits

Shachar Group began issuing and selling carbon credit certificates in the voluntary market.

Sede Bar BSF activity

Shachar Group completed the initial planning phase for the first industrial-scale BSF plant in Israel, dedicated to converting organic waste into alternative animal protein, fat, and organic fertilizer. This marks a significant milestone in the development of sustainable solutions in the country.

Today, Shachar Group is Israel’s largest food recycler and a pioneer in sustainability. Driven by innovation, we continuously expand our capabilities and invest in advanced technologies and promising startups, ensuring a lasting positive impact on the environment and community.
