Turning Food Waste Into Animal Nutrition

One process. Two applications.

Surplus from brands. Nutrition for livestock. Nothing in between goes to waste.

The Circular Economy Principle

It's all about
Circularity.

In a linear food system, edible surplus is discarded while farmers bear the rising cost of feed. Altere closes this gap β€” surplus becomes a resource.

The Problem

A system out of balance.

Edible food ends up incinerated or landfilled. We built Altere to change that.

⚑ India's EPR regulations are tightening. The window to act is now.

β€œIndia generates millions of tonnes of edible surplus every year. Altere recovers it, processes it, and puts it back into the food system as certified animal feed.”
