National Rendering Day
On April 21, we are commemorating by raising the barest of unnecessary garbage reduction by a process known as rendering.
#nationalrenderingday
About half of an animal is inedible, according to North Americans. This leaves a lot of leftover material that ends up as food waste. We learn about how we can eliminate material waste, what rendering means, and why using the rendering process is the correct option on National Rendering Day.
Rendering simply means recycling and removing waste, as well as used cooking oil (uco) from restaurants, as a result, we convert waste from raw materials into useful in new products
Rendering demonstrates respect and resiliency, particularly for the cattle raised by farmers with care. In fact, rendering shows respect for the animal by purposely using everything from the animal. No part of the animal goes to waste, in other words. Rending reduces our food production footprint by offsetting the environmental impacts of animal agriculture.
Rendering process
The rendering process converts and upcycles what would have been food waste into safe, clean, and valuable ingredients for countless new products. People are confident that they are making a responsible choice by using items made from upcycling rendered material because rendering saves landfill space and recycles 99% of unwanted waste. Once the rendering process is complete, the ingredients can be used in sustainable manufacture of new products. Items that are new to this day are converted into common everyday items, such as:: These new products are converted into: These new products are turned into everyday necessities, such as:: These new products are converted into:
- Safe and nutritious pet food and animal feed are available in a variety of forms
- The household and industrial products are among the household and industrial products
- Biofuels
- Renewable diesel
An eco-friendly alternative to the traditional one is a green-friendly one
Rendering is socially and economically competitive, and it supports all three pillars of sustainability: environmental, socioeconomic, and economic. endering reduces: As a high-quality process, rendering reduces: rendering reduces: As a result of a high environmentally sustainable process, rendering reduces: As a result of a high-quality process, rendering reduces: rendering reduces: As a result of a high-quality process, rendering reduces: rendering reduces: As a result of a highly reducing process.
- Food waste
- Saves landfill space
- Reduces GHG
- Reclaims and returns clear water
- Hundreds of recycled products are available. Hundreds of recycled items are available
According to statistics published in 2020, more than 62 billion pounds of rendered raw materials are produced in the United States and Canada annually. We can produce approximately 31.4 billion pounds of rendered products each year as a result of rendering techniques, thus keeping it out of landfills.
Environmental impacts have a direct effect on climate change
Rendering has reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 72%. rendering saves fossil fuel use by 80% in comparison to petroleum diesels. In addition,, it also stops at least 90% of the potential GHG emissions when compared to industrial composting. In other words, rendering is the GHG reduction equivalent of removing approximately 18.5 million cars off the road each year.
Water quality can also be enhanced by rendering. During the rendering process, billions of gallons of water are recovered, which is then released back into the atmosphere. The water returns as clear water to local rivers and streams. After returning to its original location, the rendering process of water meets and often exceeds federal, state, and local safety requirements.
Social and economic impacts are also felt on economic and economic impact
Rendering is a financially healthy and community-focused industry, providing career stability and a commitment to community service. Thousands of full-time, stable jobs that support families and local communities from coast to coast, many in rural areas, are provided by the act of rendering food. Local employees remain local due to the raw and perceptible nature of the product being processed, more importantly, local jobs remain local.
Renderers play a vital role in their communities and wider communities. renderers are deeply embedded in social justice and community support, from supporting the local little league and fire department, to assisting feed and assistance those in need.
The majority of rendering plants are family owned and operated. Many rendering companies are dedicated and passionate about providing community care and outreach. Plant owners invest a considerable amount of time and money to improve and enhance their sustainability efforts. This commitment ensures that their facilities remain as climate smart and environmentally sustainable as possible.

- In your neighborhood, you can help with rendering
- Learn the most important information about rendering and the environmental impacts it has on the planet
- Encourage friends and neighbors to support rendering efforts in their communities
- Listen to The Invisible Industry podcast to raise hopes and appreciation for rendering's important contributions to sustainability and reduced food waste
- You can tag a renderer you know on social media using #NationalRenderingDay and tagging a renderer you know
A new national day
The North American Renderers Association (NARA) and the North American Renderers Association (NARA) are excited to announce National Rendering Day, which is observed each year on April 21. This day has been planned to show appreciation for those in the rendering industry. Today, we encourage everyone to recognize and celebrate the numerous environmental benefits of rendering, including the vital role in reducing food waste and overall sustainability.
The NARA is a body of individuals committed to the best interests of its members in public, government, and regulatory affairs. Both in the national and international markets, the company provides services, programs, and technical assistance to the North American rendering industry. Their aim is to provide innovative solutions to food, feed, oil, oleochemical, and other clients. The NARA promotes a healthy food chain, public health, and the climate by the production and marketing of their members' products and services.
The NARA encourages the creation and expansion of trade between foreign buyers and North American exporters by promoting animal by-products. The NARA also has offices in Mexico and Hong Kong in addition to their US-based headquarters. Market consultants are also located in Brussels, China, Thailand, Vietnam, and Chile.
