What's in our packaging and how sustainable is ELEAT?Updated 13 days ago

Our pouches are designed to keep your breakfast fresh and protect the product — and we're working on making them better, year on year.

The honest truth: high-protein, low-sugar food has strict packaging needs (oxygen and moisture barriers) which makes 100% recyclable pouches a real challenge. We've made progress, and we'll keep going.

Where we are today:

  • Pouches are widely recyclable through soft plastic recycling points (most UK supermarkets accept these)
  • Outer cardboard shipping boxes are 100% recyclable kerbside
  • No unnecessary plastic — we don't use bubble wrap, plastic packing peanuts, or extra wrappers
  • Subscription orders mean fewer parcels, fewer shipping runs, and less packaging overall

What's next:

  • We're testing fully home-compostable pouch materials
  • We track our shipping emissions and offset where we can
  • Bigger pouches = less packaging per gram of product
