Work With Us

Over 450 million pounds recycled

Each year, we destroy and recycle over 35 million cases of distressed and unsaleable beverage products. Through these activities, we recycle and repurpose over 450 million pounds of packaging materials including glass, aluminum and plastics. Additionally we recover and manufacture over 6.5 million gallons of waste-derived ethanol.

Liquid Waste Recycling/Recovery

Through our unique liquid waste recycling/recovery programs in Louisville, KY and Ontario, CA we convert beverage liquids and industrial alcohol byproducts into fuel grade ethanol. This ethanol is utilized by major oil companies as a clean air additive in their gasoline blends. Materials that would otherwise be unusable wastes now contribute to the production of 60 million gallons of lower emission gasoline products.

Recover and Reuse

At Parallel, our goal is to recover and reuse the maximum amount of resources from the products and wastes that we receive. Because of our ethanol recovery and plastics sorting operations, we have set the bar for recovery/reuse in our industry. Parallel Products continuously works to develop projects that will further our position in the renewable energy sector. As our Nation’s agenda is increasingly focused on the need for renewable energy, we are finding new ways to make significant contributions.
Our Services

Brand Protection, Security, Compliance

Materials are managed and processed under the strict requirements of the Tax & Trade Bureau, Department of Homeland Security and if applicable, U.S. Customs as we are required to comply with our Distilled Spirits Plants (DSP) and Bonded Wine Cellar (BWC) permits. These requirements apply to receipt, record keeping, destruction and reporting practices. This means that your materials are properly removed from the market and destroyed/recycled to eliminate any possible downstream liabilities.

Federal Excise Tax and Customs Duty Drawback Assistance and Processing

Parallel has a complete staff of dedicated professionals to process or assist in the processing of tax claims to recover this cost associated with unsaleable products. Each year, we process and transact over $8 million of tax recovery funds on behalf of our customers.

Permitted Distilled Spirits Plants

For both our Industrial Alcohol and Beverage customers, Parallel Products’ ability to recover and repurpose ethyl alcohol removes this material from the waste stream. Provisions in RCRA (40CFR 261.6) exempt these materials from their prior Hazardous Waste Characterization.

Flexibility

Our facilities have unmatched receiving and processing capacity. Large projects or natural disasters can be managed quickly and efficiently. Need assistance with freight? We can coordinate and schedule shipments by truck or rail nationwide.
