OUR PRACTICES
The IERCA focuses on producing top quality compost under the guidelines outlined in the United States Composting Council’s Seal of Testing Assurance (STA) Program. Our quality control procedures, known as HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point), are tailored after the U.S. Army’s Natick Laboratories and a National Academy of sciences research on food safety for astronauts. IERCA’s Quality Assurance Program guarantees our compost to be a consistent stable product. In addition, our staff has earned Master Compost Certificates through the University of California Extension Riverside California.

“The city of Fontana has been partnering with the Inland Empire Regional Composting Authority (IERCA) since the topper was provided with no cost to municipalities. The organic material is very beneficial to the overall health of the areas that it is being used, primarily in turf areas. The City of Fontana will continue utilizing this product since it is an organic/recycle material that provides great benefits to our landscapes.”
“We have been using IERCA’s products in our soils for many years. They offer a top-notch product and quality service that surpasses all others in the industry.”
At this high-tech facility, modern engineering principles are used to accelerate the natural degradation process enabling a finished product to be produced in an expedited timeframe. Ongoing monitoring of the system allows for a consistently high-quality soil amendment to be produced.
Build healthy Soil with our nutrient rich carbonAceous SoilPro Products Compost
The benefits of using carbonaceous materials, such as compost, to amend soils and improve growth of crops are numerous and well documented. Compost products are proven to save water and produce direct benefits to soils and crops in both horticulture (lawns and gardens) and agriculture (vegetables, fruits, nuts, and hay crops).
Investing in Organics Recycling
Many municipalities recognize the need for programs to reduce and divert urban carbonaceous materials from landfills. Composting may represent the greatest potential for turning compostable materials into value-added products. IERCA is committed to transforming carbonaceous materials into valuable SoilPro Products.
