Category 3 fat trimmings, also called beef fat trimmings, is another type of beef raw material that we process at PEPITO. This fat is distinctive in its composition; it is a mixture of subcutaneous fat, fat from around the muscles and fat from inside the body cavity.

Due to their composition, fat trimmings have a number of unique properties that make them attractive for some industrial applications. The combination of different types of fats from different parts of the body gives these trimmings specific characteristics and expands their possible uses.

At PEPITO, we specialize in their selection and processing to ensure they meet all quality and safety requirements. All fat trimmings we source must meet the criteria for Category 3 animal by-products. This is the standard we apply at all stages of our processing process.
