We perform regular quality and safety audits to help ensure all quality standards are consistently met
At Drumm, we work under a food safety plan that integrates HACCP principles and concepts into our M-1003 quality program.

We conduct appropriate training to educate our new and existing employees about critical topics, such as Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs), allergen management, sanitation and traceability.

Environmentally Responsible Railcar Cleaning & Maintenance Solutions
At Drumm, we operate in-house wastewater pretreatment systems that maintain compliance with CFR Title 40 Part 442 (Transportation Equipment Cleaning Point Source Category.) Our wastewater pretreatment methods, depending on the facility, include:
- Decanting
- Chemical precipitation
- Dissolved air flotation
- Membrane separation
- Centrifugal dewatering
- Pressure filtration
We also strive to protect our environment by exceeding all federal, state and local regulations regarding product recycling, recovery, treatment and disposal operations. We have established relationships with industry partners for our off-site disposal needs.
Cutting Edge Recovery, Recycling & Material Reuse
We can provide numerous ways to properly dispose of or recycle waste materials without harming the environment. FOG products (fats, oil & grease) are recovered and put to environmentally appropriate use by our partners in the feed or energy industries. Bio-solids, sludge and other organics are applied to landscapes and farms to reduce pressure on local landfills. Recycling of these food wastes replenishes important nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen back into the soil to reduce the need for synthetic fertilizers. Additionally, we work with waste management firms to convert high BOD liquid wastes into renewable energy to power the grid through an anaerobic digestion waste to energy process.
