Understanding Animal By-Products (ABPs)
Animal by-products (ABPs) are materials derived from animals that are not intended for human consumption. These can include anything from carcasses to parts of animals such as bones, hides, skins, hooves, horns, and feathers. The disposal of these products is highly regulated to prevent risks to public health and the environment.
Categories of ABPs
- Category 1 animal by products: High-risk materials that must be incinerated.
- Category 2 animal by products: Also high-risk but can be used for certain technical purposes or incinerated.
- Category 3 animal by products: Low-risk materials that can be processed into other goods.

Martlands Merseyside
Martlands Merseyside has been operating for over 100 years. We are based in Burscough, Lancashire, a few miles north of Ormskirk. Martland’s Merseyside is a family owned business that has been trading for over 100 years, since William Martland was contracted by the British Military at Lathom Remount for the humane slaughter of horses unfit to go to war in the early 20th Century. From these origins, the business has expanded over the years into one of the North West’s premier skip hire companies.
