Today an estimated 30% of all the food produced in the world, ends up as waste before it even gets to our kitchen tables. This food-wasting also results in the loss of water, and all the energy needed to grow, harvest, transport, and package it. An absolute shame, because fighting food waste is the single most effective solution to global warming.

What are Upcycled Foods?

Upcycled foods use ingredients that otherwise would not have gone to human consumption, are procured and produced using verifiable supply chains, and have a positive impact on the environment.

Luckily, nowadays consumers are enthusiastic about upcycled foods. They become more aware of the impacts of food losses and waste and actively want to make a change by making different choices in their purchasing decisions.

It’s essential for consumer companies to invest in sustainability for long-term success!

Participate in the upcycled food movement by making it easy for your consumers. Providing an Upcycled Certified™ mark on the packaging of your products is a perfect way to do so. Through this mark, your consumers know they’re buying a product with upcycled food ingredients and are making a positive contribution to the planet. The mark helps them make an informed choice in their purchases.
