QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Jakob Skovgaard, Jesper Colding and Paul Cornillon are behind the Audu brand and founded the company PlanetDairy in January 2022. PlanetDairy has development facilities in Agro Food Park in Aarhus.

Audu is inspired by the first creature in Norse mythology Auðumbla. Auðumbla means the “milk-rich cow”, which was a primeval cow that gave milk to the giant Ymer. From Ymer’s body the world was formed.
Auðumbla licked Buri out of a salt stone – he was a primeval giant and the ancestor of the gods. He fathered Borr, and when Borr married Bestla, together they had Odin, Vile and Ve, known as the first gods

Audu is available grated in a variant with mozzarella and plant ingredients, and in a variant grated cheddar and plant ingredients.

Audu blends an animal part from the cow with a plant-rich part from legumes, coconut oil and rapeseed oil. This preserves the flavor that comes from cow’s milk – and is enriched with plant ingredients that have much lower_{CO2 emissions} compared to production.

Audu is manufactured in Skanderborg by Falengreen.

You can use Audu exactly the way you eat and use cheese. We strive to make products where most people don’t notice a difference in taste, functionality and nutrition.

We’ve carefully selected the ingredients we use to maintain a varied protein content. Audu contains both animal protein and plant protein from legumes and has a fat content on par with similar types of cheese. Audu products are a great contribution to a healthy and varied diet.

“_CO2e” is a term that describes different greenhouse gases in a common unit. For any amount and type of greenhouse gas, CO2e is the amount of_CO2 that would have the corresponding effect on global warming.
An amount of greenhouse gas can be expressed as_CO2eby multiplying the amount of greenhouse gas by its warming potential. For example, the greenhouse gas methane (which is the gas that cows belch out) is 25 times more warming than_CO2e. Thus, if 1 kg of methane is emitted, this can be expressed as 25 kg_CO2e(1 kg _CH4 * 25 = 25 kg_CO2e).

We have chosen to work with CarbonCloud, which is an independent body that provides_{CO2 calculations} using a scientific methodology. We will always link our_{CO2 declarations} to CarbonCloud or another independent 3rd party.
All aspects of the product’s manufacturing are included in its_{CO2 impact} . This means that feed, farming, production and transportation/storage are included in the entire value chain.

The plant part of our products emits significantly less_{CO2 in} production than the animal part. This reduces the product’s overall_{CO2 profile} . The first products from Audu have at least 40% less_{CO2 content} compared to similar cheeses that are 100% animal-based.

Organic is very much on our radar and we want to create organic offers whenever possible. However, we prioritize_{CO2 reduction} over organic and in some cases organic raw materials have a higher_{carbon footprint} than their conventional counterparts or are simply not available.
