Our pork lard provides versatile solutions for various industrial sectors. In addition to energy, these fats with a free fatty acid content of up to 5% provide feed manufacturers with fat-soluble vitamins that improve nutrient absorption and feed taste. For the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries, our pork fat with a low free fatty acid (FFA) content of up to 0.6% is the ideal raw material for soaps, ointments and balms, where purity and quality are paramount.
Legislation
Our products – including rendered pork fat – are made from cat. 3 animal by-products according to Regulation (EC) No. 1069/2009; 142/2011). Production takes place under the supervision of Czech veterinary authorities. We adhere to the highest quality standards and strict European regulations.

Related questions
Do you use preservatives and other additives in the production of fats?
When processing fats, we use only steam to dissolve them, and then centrifuge the mixture. We add antioxidants only at the request of specific customers (typically feed manufacturers).
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
For processed animal proteins, our standard MOQ is 1 ton (one Big Bag), and for rendered animal fats, it is 50 kg (typically for cosmetics manufacturers), but we also offer smaller trial orders for your test production. We provide bulk deliveries to pet food and biofuel manufacturers, as well as small orders for cosmetics manufacturers.
What types of packaging does PEPITO use?
It depends on the product and the size of your order. To give you an idea, here is a typical packaging method based on shipment size and product type:
Rendered animal fats:
- Small packages – for these, we most often choose 100-liter plastic drums certified for food contact, but other packaging can be selected by agreement. This packaging is typically chosen by customers in the cosmetics, chemical, or pharmaceutical industries.
- IBC containers – the happy medium for customers who need several hundred kilograms or a few tons of fat. This packaging is chosen, for example, by smaller feed manufacturers.
- Tank trucks – ideal for large feed and biofuel manufacturers.
Animal meal:
- Big bag – a truck can be fully loaded with them (approx. 24 tons), but we also supply individual bags if you need a smaller volume, such as 6 tons, etc.
- Tilt-top trailer (open-top, capacity approx. 24 tons) – ideal for larger deliveries, for example, to organic fertilizer manufacturers.
Do you also offer shipping to your customers?
You don’t have to worry about choosing the right packaging or other shipping details—we’ll be happy to arrange delivery of our rendered animal fats and animal meal right to your doorstep.
What certifications do you have?
Quality and safety are the cornerstone of our production. We adhere to the HACCP traceability system (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points), and we hold ISO 9001:2015 certification and a veterinary certificate.
