Vanguard facility turns expired food and beverages into energy
Vanguard Renewables has placed itself at the forefront of the organics processing movement with the opening of an advanced depackaging facility in Massachusetts.
Founded in 2014 by John Hanselman and Kevin Chase, Wellesley, Massachusetts-based Vanguard Renewables was created with the primary goal of transforming what was once considered waste into renewable energy to power homes, businesses and communities.
Working directly with food manufacturers and other organic waste producers from across the food and beverage spectrum, the renewable energy company’s projects have placed an emphasis on recycling organic waste that would have previously ended up in a landfill.
The grant will be used toward capital infrastructure improvements to the district’s hazardous waste collection facility and enhanced food scrap collection.

Devansoy is a successful company in Rockford, IL that processes food-grade soy products out of organic and conventional soybean varieties. Devansoy’s Benesoy ingredients are made using a unique process that results in natural and organic soy ingredients that are whiter, blander, and easier for its customers to use. This proprietary process allows Devansoy’s all-natural and organic liquid soy proteins, soy protein powders, and soy flours to offer consistency and quality. The all-natural Benesoy process leaves all elements intact, providing a product that’s rich in naturally-occurring soy isoflavones, with all the benefits its consumers expect from soy.
