Rind is rich in fibers and energy, which makes it an ideal constituent in the design of cattle feed plans.
Rind is sold in bulk. It is supplied by means of tipper trucks with a bank-bed which opens to the rear of about 28 tons in average.
Because this is a wet product, it is recommended that it is kept in holding-cells with concrete floors, provided the product is to be consumed within the following 10 to 15 days after its delivery.
