Thoughtful food
Best known for their fantastic range of meat-free alternatives, Quorn Foods just keep getting better, having recently announced their commitment to the planet with ‘climate-positive’ protein. The brand’s Sustainable Development Report states that in 2018, Quorn generated 8.5 times fewer CO2 emissions than the meat they replaced. As a result, customers saved over 200,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions by choosing veggie or vegan options. The report also highlights Quorn’s commitments to reducing plastic pollution. The company removed 100 per cent of black plastic from their packaging in 2018, and as a partner of the Waste & Resources Action Programme (wrap.org.uk) and signatory to the UK Plastics Pact, Quorn have pledged to making 100 per cent of their plastic packaging reusable, recyclable or compostable. They aim to eliminate all single-use plastic from their manufacturing sites by the end of 2019.
