Rendered poultry products are ingredients obtained through the rendering process, which involves boiling and processing chicken by-products to extract valuable components. These products find wide applications as feed ingredients for poultry, livestock, fishing, and other domestic animals.
The main types of rendered poultry products include poultry fat, grease, protein meal, and others. Poultry fat is the residual substance left after the standard rendering process removes moisture and solids. It serves as an energy source in animal and aquaculture feed. Rendered poultry products come in various grades, including food grade, feed grade, and industrial grade, catering to applications in the food industry, medical industry, and other sectors.

Rendered poultry products enhance the utilization of poultry byproducts, minimize waste, and add value to the meat production process by integrating beef, chicken, and pork with poultry byproducts. For example, in April 2023, the Foreign Agricultural Service, a US-based government agency, reported that global chicken meat production rose from 101.2 million tons in 2021 to 102 million tons in 2022. Furthermore, global beef and veal production increased from 58.4 million tons in 2021 to 59.3 million tons in 2022. Thus, the rise in meat production is fueling the growth of the rendered poultry products market.
