FAQ

What work fits NAICS 311613?
  • Accepting non-edible animal byproducts and rendering them into tallow, grease, and protein meals delivered as industrial feedstocks.
  • Processing inedible carcass material via cooking and separation to produce fats and meals with batch testing and product specification documentation.
  • Providing pick-up, transport acceptance, and permitted rendering of offal from slaughter or disposal operations with biosecure handling procedures.
  • Supplying packaged rendered products with certificates of analysis, weight-based invoicing, and material safety documentation.
When is NAICS 311613 a weak fit?
  • Animal slaughter and meat packing for human consumption: primary activities include food-grade slaughter, carcass fabrication, and edible meat packaging which require food-processing controls not part of rendering operations.
  • Leather tanning and hide finishing: tanning transforms hides into finished leather through chemical processes and finishing steps distinct from rendering animal byproducts into fats or meals.
  • Composting or landfill disposal of carcasses: disposal-focused services emphasize waste reduction or burial rather than processing materials into usable rendered products.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 311613?
  • Line items for weight-based intake and processing of non-edible byproducts with pricing per ton and specified handling windows.
  • Performance requirements calling for delivery of rendered fats and meals meeting defined chemical or moisture specifications and accompanying test reports.
  • Contract clauses requiring biosecurity procedures, traceability documentation for incoming material, and proof of compliant disposal or product reuse pathways.
