Overview

This category, HTS Code 1501.20.00.60, specifically covers "yellow grease." Yellow grease refers to a type of rendered pork fat that is darker in color and typically has a lower quality compared to choice white grease. It is derived from various parts of the pig, excluding the belly and back fat, and undergoes a rendering process. Its physical characteristics, including its color and consistency, distinguish it from other pig fats.

Within the broader classification of "Other pig fat," yellow grease is distinguished from its sibling category, "Choice white grease" (HTS 1501.20.00.40). Choice white grease is a highly refined, light-colored, and low-odor product, often used in food applications. Yellow grease, on the other hand, is generally less refined, has a more pronounced color, and its applications are more commonly found in industrial uses such as animal feed ingredients, soap manufacturing, or biodiesel production. The "Other" category (HTS 1501.20.00.80) serves as a residual catch-all for any pig fat not specifically classified as choice white grease or yellow grease.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories for yellow grease. Classification at this level is determined by the specific characteristics of the rendered pig fat, primarily its color and intended use, which differentiate it from the higher-grade white grease and other less defined pig fat products.
