on a mission
to bring you
plant-based
goodness*

We tirelessly refine our recipes through tasting, testing, and your feedback.

From plant to breakfast bowl, we’re proud of our main ingredients that taste delicious! We add in some vitamins and minerals such as calcium, iodine and vitamins to bring you plant-based goodness* to start each day.

*Most of Alpro products are source of calcium, which is needed for the maintenance of normal bones. A varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle is recommended for good health.

More on our ingredients

Non-gmo Soya

All our soya beans are and will always be non-GMO. 100% of our organic beans and over 50% of our conventional beans are grown in Europe (mostly France). And the rest we get from Canada – they’ve been growing brilliant beans there for years. It’s true, these travel quite a long way to get to our factory in Belgium, we ship them across the Atlantic by boat. ​

​Including soya beans in the crop rotation help keep nitrogen in the soil, so that no additional nitrogen fertilization is needed. On top it increases the soil fertility and brings several benefits to the other crops of the rotation.*

Plus, all our beans can be tracked from seed to serve. We have a system audited and certified according to the ProTerra standard by the independent organization, Food chain ID and we know where every bean has been. So enjoy the soya!

Mediterranean almond

All our almonds have been lovingly grown around the sunny shores of the Mediterranean.

On top of that, we are working to implement pilots with our farmers to put in place even better ways of doing things to promote and protect biodiversity, to protect bees, restore biodiversity and soil health of the orchards whilst increasing the resilience of our farmers, especially regarding water scarcity.

European Oats

100% of our oats are grown in Europe - in countries such as France, UK and Finland. Pretty oatsome! ​

Oat is a sustainable crop, with little ecological impact compared to other cereals. No extra watering is required, and only limited use of fertilizers is needed*.

Yet we can and we want do better: we are launching with external partners a 360° approach project to support the transition toward regenerative agriculture (Navarre360 program).

Step 1

How our drinks are made

The first step in making our delicious Alpro Almond drinks is to soak the almonds in water. This ensures that they’re thoroughly cleaned. To bring out their natural nutty flavour, the almonds are lightly roasted, before being finely crushed and combined with water to create the ultimate super delicious blend.

Step 2

How our drinks are made

It’s time to blend our almonds with water! at this stage in the process we add any other ingredients that might be needed, including the vitamins and minerals we use to enrich our almond drinks. These include calcium, iodine and vitamins D2, E and B12. Finally, the resulting mixture is then strained. This gives Alpro Almond that signature smooth and creamy texture that complements its nutty taste

Step 3

Packed, delivered and ready to enjoy

Lastly we turn the almond drink into either a shelf-stable (UHT) or fresh (heat-treated) product. Then it’s packaging and delivery time so you can enjoy that plant-based nuttiness in your everyday breakfast!

Step 1

How our drinks are made

As a first step oats are dehusked, ground, and pressed to create the basis for our delicious oat drinks. They reach us here at Alpro as oat flour and they’re then mixed and milled together with water in our factory to create that smooth and silky texture. The ingredients used retain many of the nutrients from the oats.

Step 2

How our drinks are made

The next step in the process is to add enzymes to our creamy and smooth oat blend. Then we are ready for other ingredients to be added, such as vitamins D2, B2 and B9. We also add calcium to support the maintenance of normal bones, and iodine which contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system. Each product will provide slightly different amounts of those nutrients our body needs. So, always check the packs for the full facts.

Step 1

How our drinks are made

Our soya drinks are made from the whole soya beans, which are first dehulled and then soaked in water for several hours. This cleans them and makes the blending process easier - which results in our signature smooth and creamy texture. They are then soaked in water and ground.

About stabilisers, thickeners and emulsifiers

We occasionally include ingredients such as stabilisers, thickeners and emulsifiers, to make our foods look and taste even more delicious. But rest assured that there are some things you’ll never, ever find in any Alpro product – preservatives, artificial sweeteners and colourings.

Stabilizers

Stabilisers help our drinks flow smoothly and give our plant-based alternatives to yogurt a creamy texture. They maintain food texture or colour, prevent liquids from separating and preserve natural colour.

Thickeners

Thickeners do just as their name suggests – they make foods thicker and creamier. And that's especially useful for low in fat plant-based food, just a little thickener can add that luxurious touch that makes a dessert so delicious.

Emulsifiers

We add just the right amount of emulsifier to keep our drinks perfectly blended and oh-so-smooth. Think of an emulsifier as a little matchmaker! It has one end that loves water (hydrophilic) and one end that prefers oil (hydrophobic). In simpler terms, it’s like a tiny tie that brings water and oil together, holding hands and making sure they stay happily mixed. Cheers to that!

We produce our delicious drinks in our productions facilities: Alpro Kettering (UK) and Wevelgem (Belgium). They both run on 100% renewable electricity.*
