our mission to zero waste

Our condiments are packed in plastic. At the moment there is no better packaging than plastic for condiments. Plastic is clean, safe, reliable and very durable which reduces waste. Our packs and plastic are very light, which makes transport and storage efficient.  

Plastic is of course a problem. We don’t need a planet full of rubbish, and we are very keen to be a rubbish free company. Fortunately, we’re not the only company that wants to solve this, so technology develops quickly. Here’s where we are today: 

1. Our rigid dosettes are currently not recyclable yet, because they are made of multiple plastic layers. These layers prevent leaking of the condiment. It's our priority to introduce our dosettes in a MONO-plastic in 2024.
Our dosettes are now made from 30% recycled plastic. We are working on increasing the proportion, by 2025 they should be made from 50%   recycled plastic. 
‍
Our fish shaped dosette for soy sauce we've ditched the old plastic layers and switched to recyclable Mono-plastic. Up to 50% of that plastic is recycled.

2. Our sachets are made from monoplastic, which means it is recyclable. We have not yet found a recycled plastic for this. 

3. Our ultimate goal is to become plastic-free in 2030. All plastic packaging will  be replaced by naturally bio-degradable packaging. We are testing 2 plastic-free materials at the moment. We’ll keep you updated, keep an eye on our website for the latest news. 
‍
Of course, all our plastic is BPA free.

We have six different production locations, two in Italy, three in The Netherlands and one in Germany. All our factories run on their own renewable energy, and we produce as close to our buyers as we can, minimalizing traffic. Our goal is to produce without
CO2 impact in 2026.

At Liquido d’Oro we only use the best ingredients. We pull out all the stops for the wow-effect. And that’s exactly what you taste in our premium condiments. We source our ingredients together with our trusted partners.

Our condiments are made from the best ingredients we can find. If you use first class ingredients like Japanese soy beans, Ogliarola olives, or Rawit peppers, there is hardly no need for colourings, flavourings or other unnatural additives. All our ingredients and recipes are GMO and palm oil free, and our suppliers all have a BRC certification, ensuring maximum food quality and employee safety.

We pay our farmers a fair price according to living wage, and only work with suppliers with internationally recognized, independently verified ethical certification.
