Strong brand names

VION Ingredients presents itself in its markets under the strong brand names of Rendac, Sonac, Rousselot and Ecoson.

 

Rendac

Rendac works on a healthy living environment for humans, animals and the environment. Like no one else Rendac feels responsible for the public task: fast and safe collecting, processing and destroying of corpses and animal residues. The final products are used in the energy sector, cement industry and in-house companies as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. The attention to service, hygiene, quality and the environment is crucial in the activities of Rendac.

Sonac

Sonac is the supplier of reliable and high-quality animal-based proteins, fats and minerals. These ingredients are used in food, pharmacy, pet food, compound feed, fertilisers and technical applications. All raw materials are animal-based and suitable for human consumption. Searching for the highest possible value for the various slaughterhouse by-products is essential. Because of further production process specialisation, active acquisition policy, the geographical dispersal of locations and tailor-made products for their customers, Sonac adapts perfectly to the market needs.

Rousselot

Rousselot is the world’s largest producer of gelatine. Gelatine is a versatile product which is processed in, among other things, confectionery, dairy, fish and meat products, and is also used in technical applications, such as photographic paper. Many food supplements and medicinal products are offered in a gelatine cover. Gelatine takes care of the bonding and binding in bonding materials.

Ecoson

Ecoson adapts to the growing market for second generation biofuels. Ecoson's raw materials are residues or by-products from the meat processing industry. Because of this, the food chain is not damaged. Using an attenuation installation for the production of sustainable energy and a factory for the production of deacidificated animal fat and biodiesel, Ecoson is a clear embodiment of VION’s preservation whishes. Ecoson end-products are used in the energy and transport sector and oleochemical industry.
