Sustainability Focus
We’re driven to reduce waste and keep it out of landfills and incinerators. So, we’re helping food manufacturers improve operations and generate the greatest value from waste.

Science Driven Approach
Combining the know-how and experience of our PhD animal nutritionists, food scientists and manufacturing experts, we’re creating new, healthy feed ingredients that increase value from underutilized and forgotten product.

Comprehensive Value Creation
Deep experience and access to all elements of the food and feed industries enables us to maximize revenue for by-product and offer nutrition at an affordable price that ultimately leads to healthier animals – all while supporting your sustainability goals.

Unmatched Expertise Under One Roof
We’ve dedicated 45+ years to servicing the food industry. We understand the market and its regulations, operations and safety better than anyone. You can trust we will secure the best value for your by-product and help you make wise business decisions.
