Know what you eat and eat what you know. We believe in a world where food comes from the land. Nothing artificial. Only what nature intended. Nothing more, nothing less. For you, for the planet, for everybody. Provamel is committed to make you trust food again. We want to be open and honest in everything we do and say to help you do so. If it is not good for you, it's not right to us. We're not perfect, but ever since we started out in 1983 we’ve been dedicated to doing better. Bit by bit, year on year.
Committed to do better
All our products are organic* and plant-based. We respect nature and have strict rules for respecting the environment. Everything we make is GMO free and organic* certified, which means less pesticides and antibiotics in your body and our soil. Like all organic products, there are no artifical additives, preservatives and colourings in any of our foods. We rigorously evaluate every ingredient on its added value and we will never use unnecessary ones. We are open and honest so everybody can understand all our ingredients and why we put them in. What doesn’t fit, we leave out. We're not perfect, but ever since we started out in 1983 we’ve been dedicated to doing better.
* We also offer a drink enriched with vitamins — our Provamel Drink Soya with Calcium & Vitamins. This is the only product in our assortment that is not and cannot be organic.
Sustainable organic sourcing & harvesting
For our soya, oats, rice or almonds (or hazelnuts), we prefer working with small, local organic farmers in Europe instead of the big players in the global market. That way, we develop long lasting, personal relationships with our producers based on mutual respect and trust. They know they have a safe and secure future with us, we know we're getting the best of their harvest. When we do have to look worldwide for ingredients, such as cocoa, we make sure that our sources are sustainable. All the ingredients that we source are vegan, GMO-free and organic.
Overall, the production of plant-based food is highly resource efficient. In fact, our soya-based drinks use less land, less water, and less CO2. Using crops to feed humans is more efficient than using them to feed animals first and then us, and eating a healthy, sustainable plant-based diet can go a long way to reduce our impact on the planet. Our sustainability goes all the way – in our factory, currently, we're pleased to say that all Provamel products are produced in a CO2 neutral way.*
*Following energy efficiency programs in our production sites in Europe, 2,450 t direct CO2 emissions remain attributed to Provamel production (2019 Scope 1+2, Greenhouse Gas Protocol). All 2,450 t are compensated by financial support to re-forestation project in India (The Khasi Hills Community REDD+) through www.weforest.org (Provamel CO2 Retirement Certificate, 11.07.2020).
