What the Project Is
SOLUM converts green ideas and residual products into effective solutions that help society and organizations move forward in a circular manner. As a leading Danish company within recycling, SOLUM stands as Denmark’s largest supplier of soil products, a specialist contractor in the green area, and a development house for sustainable solutions for facilities, construction, and energy. Aikan Ltd supplies an anaerobic integrated compost plant that transforms biodegradable municipal solid wastes, food-waste, surplus from agriculture, and more into biogas and quality compost for agriculture. This dynamic approach proves that business and circular economy can go hand in hand… offering sustainable products and services that lay the groundwork for a circular future.
Main Benefit
Key figures and facts of this project include:
- Denmark’s largest supplier of soil products

Innovative Circular Solutions
The project is all about integrating innovative circular solutions into everyday practices. With a clear goal of becoming a 100% circular company, SOLUM advances the mission to support other businesses in preserving resources and staying in the loop. The straightforward message remains – circular economy principles can work wonders when combined with effective recycling and sustainable materials. The approach is refreshing and direct… aiding societal progress while taking clear responsibility for the environment.
Urban Green Development
In the urban arena, green development processes are enhanced to make sites even greener. The emphasis on anlæg involves everything from expert advice and establishing new green designs to ongoing management and handling of various waste streams. The service portfolio extends to the delivery of essential growth media, ensuring that every project contributes to a healthier urban environment. This refined approach means that even green construction projects are given a circular twist, using the best sustainable practices available.
Sustainable Energy Transformation
Energy solutions are central to this project’s mission, with sustainable energy transformation taking a forefront role. Aikan provides a complete solution for converting organic waste into green energy. Organizations can create their own green energy supplies by transforming organic residues into biogas, ensuring not only an environmentally friendly process but also a reliable energy stream. The concept is simple yet powerful – turning waste into a valuable resource, while showcasing that circular energy practices can ease the transition from traditional to renewable energy methods.
Project Impact
- SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy – promoting efficient conversion of organic residues to biogas
- SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities – integrating circular practices in urban green development
- SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production – advancing recycling and effective resource management
- SDG 13: Climate Action – reducing waste and enhancing sustainable energy generation
- SDG 15: Life on Land – supporting soil health and fostering resilient ecosystems
Community and Environmental Progress
The project not only focuses on environmental sustainability but also significantly impacts communities. By proving that business operations and a circular economy can function together seamlessly, the initiative promotes a forward-thinking mindset across Denmark and beyond. Business owners learn that effective, sustainable products and services can be fully integrated with economic success. The project’s drive to make every green area and energy project more circular is a cornerstone in environmental progress — a tangible nod to a future where waste is minimized and resources are continually reused. Additionally, strong ties with local administration, showcased through specific contact details such as Vadsbystræde 6, 2640 Hedehusene, Denmark, and phone numbers +45 43 99 50 20 and +45 46 75 50 70, demonstrate that this initiative is deeply connected to the communities it serves. The message is clear and impactful: sustainability must include the bottom line, and every circular innovation builds a bridge between environmental health and strong economic performance.
