Alternatives to saturated fats

In line with our commitment to spread healthy eating, Borges has launched a healthy alternative to replace saturated fats in the food industry.
This new product range, based on unsaturated vegetable oils, is the result of the work of our R&D team, and is a real alternative to palm oil, dairy, hydrogenated and animal fats.

Product recycling and ecodesign

We design all our products considering sustainability and eco-innovation criteria. We are gradually introducing recycled PET into our packaging, and have obtained ECOSENSE certification for our single-dose containers. We have also invested in ecodesign, the result of which is our DUO® cap. These are just two examples which, as well as being healthy by nature, help to reduce food waste and the environmental impact of our packaging.

100% renewable electricity

We are transitioning toward renewable energies to reduce the environmental impact of our activity. Since 2020, 94% of all power used by Borges production centres has been from renewable sources, making a significant contribution to reducing our industrial activity’s carbon footprint.
