Mateo Ocejo

Director

Prior to founding Net Zero Waste Inc., Mateo Ocejo spent 10 years working in the environmental industry, most recently with AECOM (formerly known as Earth Tech Canada). During that time, Mateo has provided a wide range of private and public sector clients with guidance and support in the design and implementation of cost effective environmentally sustainable and publicly accepted diversion strategies.

A specific focus has been placed on the Gore Cover Technology, which is relatively new to North America, as Mr. Ocejo has been recognized as an expert in the design and construction of this process technology.  Over the past 15 years, Mr. Ocejo has focused his efforts on developments in the solid waste industry; specifically, as they relate to composting. Mr. Ocejo is a professional engineer in good standing with the Province of BC, and has successfully acted as a qualified professional for compost facility permitting (OMRR) at multiple site locations within BC.  Mr. Ocejo is the Technical Director on the board of directors for the Compost Council of Canada.
