Whatever we can.
When do we need to do it?
Right now! And how?
Good food starts with good ingredients
Whether you’re an oat fanatic or a soya enthusiast, our Alpro products lighter footprints for both carbon and land use when compared to dairy equivalents*. We’re aware that some ingredients have higher water consumption (such as almond & coconut) and. we continue to work to source sustainably ingredients and to further reduce our environmental impact.
For example, between 2010 and 2021, we cut our operations footprints – by 34% for carbon and 29% for water.
As well as being selective about our ingredients, we are always trying hard to make the way we produce our foods even more sustainable too.
*Several ingredients have different impacts on carbon and land use. Impact on carbon : 19-26% compared to milk. Impact on land use: between 28-54% compared to milk. This is based on a peer-reviewed comparative life cycle assessment conducted by Quantis in 2022 of Alpro Original drinks (1 l) compared to milk in Europe
We are on the journey towards sustainable sourcing, being sustainably produced. It’s a double win!
Learn more about our ingredients
We’re proud to share that our Alpro Oat Original and Oat No Sugars 1L drinks are now made using 100% British oats — with most sourced from farms within just 80 miles of the mill. That means fewer food miles, more support for local farmers, and a smaller footprint on the planet.
But it’s not just about where our oats come from — it’s also about how we make our drinks. Thanks to this switch to local sourcing, along with a new recipe and updated production process, we’ve achieved some big sustainability wins, delivering on average across all four recipes:
25% lower carbon footprint 20% less land use 70% less water use All measured across the full product lifecycle, compared to our previous UK recipes for these drinks
Where has this data come from? In 2025, we partnered with Foodsteps to carry out a cradle-to-grave comparative life cycle assessment. This assessment followed internationally recognised standards — ISO 14044 and ISO 14067 — and used primary data where possible (from our own supply chain) along with high-quality UK/EU secondary data where needed. The results were critically reviewed to ensure accuracy and transparency.
Our go-to ingredient and the one we use the most of. So, good to know, ours is all rainforest free and non-GMO. Most is grown right here in Europe – more than half comes from France, Italy and Germany, the rest from Canada (transported by sea which reduces the carbon footprint*). Right now, we’re working with our farmers to check and measure water usage, the effect it has on their local ecosystems and ways it could be cut down**. So, go ahead, enjoy the soya!

**Our pilot study of 20 soya growers in France measured their regenerative agricultural ‘score’ using diagnostics for soil health, carbon emissions, water use & biodiversity. We’ll soon be launching a programme to support the transition to regenerative agriculture in Eastern France.
Our almonds come exclusively from farms around the Mediterranean. And even though at least 2/3 of the water they need already comes from rain, we’re always looking for more ways for our growers to use as little water as possible. Even right now, our almonds already drink 8 times less water than their thirsty American cousins. (Mediterranean almonds use more land than U.S. irrigated almonds).
On top of that, we’re also committed to showing our farmers how to turn their orchards into welcoming homes for wildlife by creating ponds and planting ground cover crops and hedges. We can’t wait to see who turns up when they do!
Plus, we’re taking them even further on their regenerative agriculture journey – suggesting better ways to till and feed the soil, managing pesky pests without chemicals or planting other crops between their trees. Making better use of the land we have! The seeds are being sown. We’re hoping to inspire all our farmers to grow green, and put the goodness back into the earth.
We get our lovely, luscious coconuts from Southeast Asia. Life’s a beach for a coconut palm! But don’t worry, they’re not related to palm oil in any way. The nuts are hand-picked the way they’ve always been, then the trees are left standing –some carry on producing coconuts until the ripe old age of 100! And it’s the crop that just keep on giving. Just think coconut milk, water, oil, juicy white flesh. And did you know that besides being delicious, the leftover coconut shells can also be used to build ropes, nets or doormats?
Making it better
We are exploring better ways to improve our process and packaging. Whether this be recycling the water and heat we use or using plant-based materials in our packaging, we are making our products as good on the outside as they can be on the inside.
- Make delicious plant-based foods
- Transform the way ingredients are grown
- continue to improve the sustainability of our ingredients
- Zero carbon, water and waste
- Less and better packaging
