Partner with Diversified Ingredients for co-product recovery services that improve sustainability, reduce risk, and strengthen your bottom line.
What Is Co-Product Recovery?
Co-product recovery is the process of recovering usable ingredients and materials generated during food manufacturing and redirecting them into appropriate feed or pet food applications rather than sending them to disposal. For food manufacturers, effective co-product recovery helps reduce waste, control disposal costs, and improve sustainability outcomes while maintaining regulatory compliance.
As a specialized co-product recovery company, Diversified Ingredients acts as the connection point between food manufacturers and qualified feed and pet food partners. Our role is not manufacturing or recycling, but managing the compliant movement, documentation, and market placement of co-products so manufacturers can focus on production while minimizing risk and inefficiency.
Why Choose Diversified Ingredients for Co-Product Recovery Services?
Diversified Ingredients brings more than 35 years of experience in food, feed, and pet food ingredient markets to every recovery program. Unlike waste-focused providers, our co-product recovery services are designed specifically for ingredient-based supply chains, ensuring recovered materials are handled responsibly and placed into appropriate end-use channels.
Our experienced sales, quality assurance, and logistics teams work together to evaluate each co-product stream, identify suitable markets, and manage transportation with minimal disruption. This integrated approach helps manufacturers reduce disposal costs, improve sustainability metrics, and maintain full traceability throughout the recovery process.
