Fats for birds
Our rendered animal fats are the ideal raw material for producing bird feed. What’s more, the natural flavor of our fats will entice even the pickiest eaters.
The high quality and safety of our products
- Compliance with EU Regulations: Our raw materials and processing methods comply with the Regulation on animal by-products (EC 1069/2009). We use only Category 3 animal by-products approved for the production of pet food and subject to strict veterinary supervision.
- Category 3 animal fats: They are a key source of energy and improve the palatability and nutritional value of feed. Low levels of free fatty acids (FFA) increase feed stability and extend shelf life.
- Safety and reliability: With PEPITO, you can be assured of regular chemical and microbiological testing, HACCP compliance, and traceability of raw materials.
Eco-friendly and sustainable production as the foundation
- We uphold the principles of the circular economy: Are you a fan of sustainability? By using our raw materials, you’re making use of valuable byproducts from food production that would otherwise go to waste.
Legislation and documentation in compliance
- Comprehensive documentation down to the last detail: We meticulously maintain technical data sheets (TDS), certificates of analysis (CoA), and complete data on safety, chemical composition, and microbiology.
- Fast processing and price transparency: Every customer receives a clear price quote from us, including shipping costs. If you’re interested, we’ll conveniently arrange shipping for you and cover the costs to ensure the safety of your cargo.

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.
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 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).
How long has PEPITO been on the market?
