Sustainability
Sustainability is a core part of who we are at Isdalen, and our goal is simple: when you choose products distributed by Isdalen, you can be confident that we have conducted thorough work – both in terms of taste and sustainability.
For us, this means selecting suppliers and customers who can document their efforts – not merely with eloquent words, but with recognized certifications, a genuine commitment to reducing their climate footprint, and a dedication to caring for people and nature.
What does sustainability reporting mean in practice?
There are several schemes that set requirements for food production – including organic certifications and initiatives that consider environmental, social conditions, and responsible resource management in agriculture.
Common to these schemes is that they provide:
- Traceability – raw materials can be tracked from origin to finished product
- Environmental Requirements – gentle use of soil, water, and energy
- Social Requirements – safety, wages, and rights for workers
- Continuous Control – independent audits and documentation
Isdalen's Approach to Sustainability
Sustainability reporting is one part of our responsibility, but our work doesn't stop there. We continuously strive to:
- Selecting suppliers who document sustainability throughout the entire value chain
- Prioritizing products with a lower carbon footprint
- Reducing food waste and optimizing logistics
- Being transparent about the value chain and providing customers with clear and honest information
At Isdalen, we actively strive for more responsible and sustainable operations – and we believe that excellent taste experiences and responsible choices can be two sides of the same coin.
