Sustainability!
We are Audu. And we love dairy products.
We are dairy lovers. We also love our planet. And that’s why we work every day to make dairy products that you love, with a lower CO2 footprint.
We work with Carbon Cloud, an independent organisation that calculates CO2 footprints using a scientific methodology. All our carbon declarations are verified by Carbon Cloud and all aspects of the product’s manufacturing and distribution are factored in. This includes feed, agriculture, production, transportation and storage. Read more about Carbon Cloud here.
So how do we make a difference?
We are dairy lovers. And we are not bound by tradition. We understand that the future of food lies in lower CO2 impact. That’s why we combine traditional dairy with goodness from the plant kingdom to create hybrid dairy products that you know and love – just with a reduced carbon footprint. Our ingredients include legumes, which are a good natural source of protein, coconut oil and potatoes. And we’re constantly on the lookout for other plant ingredients that can help us on our mission.

What is your CO2 footprint?
It is difficult to relate to one’s personal CO2 footprint. All use of energy and consumption of resources emits CO2 both directly and indirectly.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) increases the level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and causes global warming and climate change. If we do not reduce CO2, the planet is projected to become 3 degrees warmer towards the year 2100. We are already seeing the signs of a warmer planet with record temperatures, heat waves, drought and forest fires.
The Paris Agreement is a commitment made by the countries of the world to do what’s necessary so the global temperature will not increase by more than 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to 1990 levels. This requires a reduction in total CO2 emissions by 45% compared to today.
25% of all CO2 emissions are related to food production. At Audu, we believe that it is possible to make super delicious and nutritious products by mixing milk parts from the cow with plant parts. Every bite makes a difference, but it doesn’t have to taste bad because of that. On the contrary.
Therefore, Audu’s goal is to have at least a CO2 footprint that is 40% lower than similar products made from just cow’s milk.
We have chosen to work with CarbonCloud, an independent body that provides CO2 calculations using a scientific methodology. We will always link our carbon declarations to CarbonCloud or another independent 3rd party.
All aspects of the product’s manufacturing are factored into its CO2 impact. This includes feed, agriculture, production and transportation/storage in the entire value chain.
