Avallen Spirits BV Sustainability Actions

Climate positive calvados

Avallen calvados is a climate positive spirit made from just three things: Apples, Water, and Time. The amazing apple trees that provide apples for Avallen sequester more carbon than we emit in producing Avallen each year, so every bottle we make represents a small positive step towards tackling the climate emergency.

Bee conservation donations

Avallen says it donates at least 2% of its turnover annually to organisations that work to save its struggling bee populations. It says the orchard bees that pollinate its apple trees, and bumblebees, are important to its ecosystems.

Published Bee More Report

The Avallen Bee More Report is the Calvados producer’s self-publication of its environmental impact from 1 May 2021 to 31 April 2022. The report looks at the firm’s carbon emissions and tree-planting efforts, as well as its bee conservation work.

B Corp certification

During the 12-month period, Avallen became a B Corp-certified organisation. The brand was also described as B Corp-certified in later coverage of its sustainability reporting.

Paper bottle launch

Other notable developments highlighted in the report include the launch of a paper bottle with Frugal Pac.

Ecospirits partnership

The brand was one of the first global partners with Ecospirits. On the website, Avallen lists ecoSPIRITS as a packaging option for its calvados.

Spent apple must to biogas

Post-production, all of the spent apple must is converted to biogas for local businesses.

Recycled glass bottle

Avallen lists a lightweight glass bottle made from 65% recycled glass at one of the most sustainable facilities in Europe.

Reduced carbon intensity

The company has cut the carbon intensity of Avallen sold by almost 5%.
