It is not without reason that palm oil is one of the most important vegetable oils in the world: it is particularly rich, has a neutral taste and ensures that our Kölln crunchy mueslis retain their distinctive crunchiness.
But we are also aware that palm oil cultivation brings challenges. That's why we are committed to sustainable solutions. In 2013, we decided to switch to RSPO-certified palm oil – and have been going one step further ever since. Since 2014, each of our Kölln crunchy mueslis has contained only RSPO-certified palm oil according to the "segregated" model. This means that our palm oil comes exclusively from sustainably managed plantations and remains free of non-certified products throughout the entire supply chain.
But our commitment does not stop there. Through our membership in the Forum for Sustainable Palm Oil (FONAP), we are actively working to improve cultivation conditions. In addition, since 2020 we have been investing in the MARIPOSA Fund, which supports smallholder farms in Latin America. A large proportion of our palm oil already comes from a supplier who is committed to this initiative.
