Purpose

The recovery of co-products is now essential to break away from the linear “take, use, throw away” model. We firmly believe that sustainable production means maximizing the reuse of every molecule. That is why, at AKIOLIS, we made the decision when we founded the company to reveal the potential of all animal by-products from the food chain.

Valuing these by-products and, as a result, supporting the meat industry is part of our raison d'être.

Promoting the circular economy

As a direct consequence of human food-related activities, thousands of tons of animal by-products are generated every day. Although they are not consumed or consumable, these by-products have real value and great potential due to their high fat and protein content.

Appropriate thermal treatments reveal this value while guaranteeing food safety: once transformed into animal fats, processed animal proteins or meal, they become raw materials suitable for new nutritional, functional, industrial, energy or agricultural uses.

At the heart of a circular economy, by recovering these materials, we provide concrete and innovative solutions to the challenges of sustainable development every day.

We take great pride in this, which is shared by our 1,000 employees.
