What documents do you require for deliveries?

What are the packaging and labeling requirements for the raw materials being supplied?
We provide our own containers (big boxes), which we deliver on a “full-for-empty” exchange basis. We will deliver empty big boxes to you and pick up the full ones using our own transport. We also accept frozen fat on pallets. Containers transporting Category 3 animal by-products must be clearly and legibly marked with the words “Not intended for human consumption.” They must also bear the label Category 3 animal by-product. For more information, please visit the European Union website.
What type of Category 3 materials do you purchase?

- Beef fat: internal fat, beef fat trimmings

What is the standard turnaround time from placing an collection order to the goods being picked up?
Timely and safe transport is essential for maintaining the quality of raw materials, which is why we act quickly at PEPITO.
- One-time pickup: Our goal is to ensure the highest possible quality of fat. And because refrigerated fat is perishable, we arrange for pickup at your location as quickly as possible (within a few days).
- Regular pickups: These take place at pre-arranged intervals.
