SUSTAINABILITY AT OV
Sustainability Is High On Our Agenda
We take our share of responsibility to the planet seriously and are committed to contributing to the solving of global health and sustainability challenges.
We do this by working to develop healthier food products, reducing food waste and launching new products that provide good, everyday environment-friendly choices. For several years, we have been actively engaged in efforts to preserve the rainforest and work purposefully to ensure that the raw materials we use in OV products do not contribute to deforestation.
