the nu company GmbH Sustainability Actions

Set minimum product standards

Each of our products meets these 5 minimum standards: Vegan recipe; From organic farming; Fairtrade cocoa from Peru; Sustainably packaged; reforests.

Uses beet sugar

Regional organic sugar has recently been on our list of ingredients. Due to the shorter transport routes, we have lower COâ‚‚ emissions. Also, growing beet sugar uses less water than coconut palms.

Pays cocoa premium

We pay our farmers from Peru an extra premium for the high quality of the cocoa in addition to the organic and fair trade premium. We pay our cooperatives US$ 3,500 per tonne of cocoa.

Supports agroforestry

Our Peruvian cooperatives not only pay fair salaries, they also do without pesticides and promote local biodiversity with mixed cultures and agroforestry.

Uses compostable packaging

Our chocolate is packed in home-compostable cellulose film made from renewable raw materials and/or in recyclable paper.
