Recover value from food byproducts and reduce landfill-bound production waste.
Food manufacturers generate production scrap, off-spec goods, plastic packaging, and organic byproducts in high volumes — and face increasing documentation requirements for every stream. ICTV handles recovery and compliance in one program.
What waste looks like without the right partner.
Off-spec and recalled product sitting in your warehouse
Recalled goods, off-spec batches, and unsellable branded inventory require secure disposal — not just a dumpster. ICTV handles secure destruction with Certificate of Destruction for full chain-of-custody.
Plastic packaging waste with no compliant end market
Food manufacturers generate significant plastic film and rigid plastic from packaging operations. SB 54 requires documented diversion to compliant end markets — not just a recycling bin.
Organic byproducts with limited outlets
Spent grains, production residuals, processing liquids, and food scraps from manufacturing operations need compliant organics pathways, not landfill disposal.
Documentation gaps in your diversion records
AB 341, SB 1383, and SB 54 require documented diversion. Without end-market records and weight tickets, your compliance reports won't hold up under a CalRecycle audit.
The gap between standard service and what food manufacturing operations actually need.
Recalled and off-spec product sits in the warehouse with no secure outlet.
Generic recyclers won't take branded product. Haulers won't document destruction. Recalled goods accumulate until someone forces a decision — usually under pressure.
Plastic packaging waste lacks end-market proof for SB 54.
Putting film and rigid plastics in a recycling bin isn't enough. SB 54 requires documented diversion to compliant end markets — not just access to a recycling program.
Organic byproducts go to landfill because finding compliant processors is slow.
Spent grains, production residuals, and processing waste need composting or anaerobic digestion with documentation. Generic haulers route to landfill because it's easier.
What ICTV handles for food manufacturing.
Program purchasing and destruction for manufacturing operations. FOB pickup available. Branded product destruction with Certificate of Destruction.
The compliance picture.
What these laws mean for food manufacturing — in plain English.
Applies to packaging manufacturers and producers. Requires plastic packaging to meet recyclability or compostability standards and be documented accordingly.
Non-compliance risk
Non-compliant plastic packaging cannot be used in California after January 2027. Manufacturers need documented pathways for packaging waste streams.
Organic byproducts from food manufacturing — production residuals, spent grains, processing waste — must be diverted to compliant organics pathways.
Non-compliance risk
Fines up to $500–$7,000 per day. Five-year recordkeeping required for all organic material diverted.
Commercial organics recycling required for food manufacturers generating two or more cubic yards of solid waste. Covers organic production residuals.
Non-compliance risk
Requires implementation of an organics recycling program with documentation of diversion to approved pathways.
