what types of waste wood may a manufacturer of wood pellets put in their pellets?

my employer recently decided to go green ( hah ha ha ha ha) and one of the steps they took was to convert the waste wood products from our fixture manufacturing plant into wood pellets for home heating and animal bedding. I can't believe they are allowed to use all of the types of waste they are currently using in either of those products. The bedding cannot be safe for animals, and the pellets I don't believe would meet emission standards or indoor air quality standards.
