Chick-fil-A has partnered with a Texas-based manufacturing company to convert the fast-food restaurant's used cooking oil into renewable fuel.
All Chick-fil-A locations throughout the United States and Canada will be giving old cooking oil to DAR PRO Solutions, a branch of Darling Ingredients Inc., according to a press release from the company Monday. The goal for the companies is to turn the oil into"cleaner burning renewable transportation fuel."
"We admire Chick-fil-A's commitment to reducing food waste and are proud to be part of a solution that keeps food waste out of our landfills, while delivering a renewable fuel that reduces GHG emissions," Sandra Dudley, the executive vice president of renewables and U.S. specialty operations for Darling Ingredients, said in the statement.
Chick-fil-A locations will be provided with a grease container for the used cooking oil after which DAR PRO Solutions will collect it and repurpose it at one of its 80-plus"biosecure processing plants," the website says. "At Chick-fil-A, we are committed to caring — and that includes caring for others through our food and caring for our planet," Rodney Bullard, Chick-fil-A's vice president for corporate social responsibility, said in the statement."Our innovative partnership with DAR PRO Solutions helps us be responsible stewards of the resources at our restaurants and allows us to support the future of renewable transportation fuel — all while positively influencing the communities we serve.
