Off-spec product, production residuals, and packaging — one managed program.
ICTV diverts your organic production residuals into composting, anaerobic digestion, and rendering or animal-feed pathways where appropriate, handles secure destruction of recalled and off-spec product with full chain of custody, and recovers the film and rigid packaging from your lines. We run these programs nationwide, with California's SB 1383 as the leading compliance example.
What waste looks like without the right partner.
Off-spec and recalled product
Product that fails spec, gets recalled, or can't ship has to leave the building in a way that protects your brand and prevents resale — and that requires documented destruction, not a dumpster.
Organic production residuals
Trim, fines, rejected batches, and process residuals come off the line in volume. Sent to landfill, they're a rising disposal cost; routed correctly, much of it is divertible to feed, rendering, or compost.
Packaging film and rigid plastics
Bag film, liners, totes, and rigid containers from your packaging lines stack up fast and ride out as trash weight unless they're separated and recovered.
Documentation and chain of custody
Recalls, audits, and SB 1383 reporting all demand a defensible paper trail — diversion tonnage for organics and chain-of-custody proof that destroyed product was rendered non-recoverable.
The gap between standard service and what pet food manufacturing operations actually need.
No secure destruction option
A standard hauler can't give you documented, chain-of-custody destruction. Recalled or off-spec product handled as ordinary trash is a brand and liability exposure waiting to happen.
Single-stream thinking
Vendors who handle either organics or packaging or destruction force you to juggle three programs. Your residuals, recalls, and packaging need to move through one coordinated system.
Pickup without proof
General waste service gives you a haul, not the diversion tonnage or the Certificate of Destruction your auditors and regulators require.
What ICTV handles for pet food manufacturing.
Organic residuals route to composting, anaerobic digestion, or rendering and animal feed where material quality allows; recalled and off-spec product is destroyed under documented chain of custody; and packaging film, rigid plastics, and OCC are recovered in the same program.
The compliance picture.
What these laws mean for pet food manufacturing — in plain English.
California organics collection rules depend on local programs and approved waivers. AB 1826’s threshold is two cubic yards of total solid waste weekly; SB 1383 adds collection and, for designated generators, edible-food recovery duties.
Non-compliance risk
Confirm applicable service, documentation and retention duties with the jurisdiction. Enforcement and penalties depend on the responsible party and regulation; jurisdiction-level fines are not universal business fines.

Covered packaging and plastic food service ware may create producer responsibility duties. Permanent regulations took effect May 1, 2026. Identify producer roles, covered materials and exclusions using current CalRecycle guidance.
Non-compliance risk
Waste service coordination does not replace producer obligations. Confirm registration, reporting, program requirements and exemptions with the relevant organization and qualified advisers.
Services that apply to your operation.
Organics & Food Waste Diversion
We route your production residuals into composting, anaerobic digestion, and rendering or feed pathways where appropriate, turning line waste into documented diversion instead of landfill cost.
Secure Product Destruction
Recalled and off-spec product is destroyed through certified partner facilities under full chain of custody, with a Certificate of Destruction (photos available, within 48 hours).
Recyclable Material Purchasing
We recover and purchase the film, rigid plastics, and OCC from your packaging lines on a consistent monthly program.
Waste Compliance & Reporting
Audit-ready diversion and destruction reporting for SB 1383 and local jurisdictions, covering organics, packaging, and product destruction across every facility.
Audit-ready records. Every program.
Every ICTV program produces documentation that holds up under regulatory review, internal audit, and ESG reporting.
Residual diversion summary
Tonnage of production residuals diverted, with the recovery pathway — compost, anaerobic digestion, or rendering and feed — documented for each stream.
Certificate of Destruction
Documentation that recalled and off-spec product was rendered non-recoverable, with chain-of-custody confirmation; photos available within 48 hours.
Packaging recovery statement
Film, rigid plastic, and OCC volumes recovered from packaging lines, separated from the organics and destruction streams.
Compliance tracking report
Diversion and destruction performance measured against SB 1383 and local jurisdictional requirements, with GHG and landfill-avoidance metrics.

Through certified partner facilities under full chain of custody. Material is rendered non-recoverable to protect your brand and prevent resale, and you receive a Certificate of Destruction with photos available within 48 hours.
One program for residuals, recalls, and packaging — fully documented.
We assess your production residuals, off-spec and recall handling, and packaging streams, then build a coordinated program with the diversion outlets, secure destruction, and reporting to keep you compliant nationwide.
No obligation. Free facility assessment included.
