Griffin Industries

Griffin Industries assumed a leadership role in recycling excellence in 1943 - long before environmental stewardship became a household term and corporate directive. Griffin Industries collects and recycles billions of pounds of agricultural waste annually. Meat and poultry by-products, grocery scraps, restaurant grease, and waste from the bakery industry is reclaimed and recycled into usable, everyday products. These by-products are recycled into fats, oils, proteins, alternative fuels, leather goods, organic fertilizers and methyl esters that are synonymous with quality in the pet food, animal feed, industrial/chemical, petroleum, leather and turf industries. If it were not for the collection efforts of the rendering industry, this mountain of materials would create an immense ecological problem and tax burden. Practically everyone today lives better and more economically through the efforts of renderers.
