    Castricum rending processes offal and boning room material from abattoirs and boning rooms situated close to our Dandenong location. We process only beef and lamb material.

    The mix of raw material is approximately 50% beef and 50% lamb. The mix of material remains relatively stable throughout the year, while the volume varies with the seasonal kill.

    The finished products that we produce also remain very stable because of the raw material balance
