Our five focal points

We keep our footprint as low as possible. For example, we make adjustments in the area of sustainability and corporate social responsibility is an integral part of our business operations. We value working in a safe and healthy environment with consideration for each other, for the world around us and for generations to come.

Packaging

Making our packaging more sustainable will remain one of our focal points in the coming years. Among the packaging we have introduced are wheeled containers that can be reused. We have also built new filling lines for our oils that fill in bag-in-boxes. This is how we want to drastically reduce the plastic waiste. Our goal is to make all packaging 100% recyclable by 2025.

Raw materials

Finding environmentally friendly alternatives is quite a challenge, but we have already made some great strides. We believe in nature inclusive agriculture. This is a form of agriculture that takes nature into account on all fronts. We also believe in Green & Clean. For both our sauces and oils. Our goal by 2025 is to produce all our products without artificial aromas, colors and flavors.
