SUSTAINABILITY
We are proud to have achieved B Corp certification in January 2024, as the first premium confectionary company in the Nordics, marking a significant milestone in our commitment to social and environmental responsibility.
What is a B Corp certification?
B stands for benefit for all, and B Corps are businesses that meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.
What does this mean for you?
It means that by choosing LAKRIDS BY BÜLOW, you are supporting a company that goes beyond delicious, gourmet liquorice to make a real and positive difference in the world. From the sourcing of ingredients to the treatment of our employees and our engagement with local communities, sustainability is at the core of everything we do. You can trust that every purchase you make contributes to a greater purpose building a better world together.
March is B Corp month
And with our recent certification, we are super proud to be part of the global B Corp community of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability, beyond profits.
NATURE IS OUR MOST IMPORTANT SUPPLIER
At LAKRIDS BY BÜLOW we believe that businesses should be a force for good, and the B Corp certification aligns perfectly with our core values.
Since the beginning of our story in 2007, we have set the bar high, challenged the conventional and never accepted status quo.
We were born on the mantra "less but better", when our founder Johan Bülow created a completely new category of gourmet liquorice within premium confectionery, and ever since we have strived to pave the way and make a difference within our industry.
sourcing
Our products are made from the very best natural ingredients; From liquorice roots to cocoa beans, vanilla from Madagascar, organic chilis from a local farm in Denmark, to wild berries handpicked from the forest. We are deeply dependent on a globally healthy and sustainable nature, and we must do everything we can to take care of our planet.
packaging
In 2019 we were the first confectionary company in the world to introduce a packaging of 100% recycled and recyclable (R-PET) plastic.
RESPONSIBLE GIFT PACKAGING
We are constantly working on reducing the amount of packaging and the impact of the materials we use. Our gift solutions are made from 70% recycled cardboard. The empty carton packages should be disposed of in a responsible manner and the carton should be separated from the plastic tray.
ORGANIC SLOW CRAFTED COLLECTION
In 2021 we introduced our organic SLOW CRAFTED collection in recycled glass jars, designed for reuse, and in 2022 we strengthened our collection with refill bags to reduce the packaging consumption.
