in depth production details

Analyze their supply chain: from the sourcing of raw materials to the people who make the product

Allplants source all materials from suppliers who are based in the UK or within a 50-mile radius. Some of our ingredients, such as soy, can’t be sourced locally at the moment.

If seasonality doesn’t allow this, they are sourced within Europe and never air-freighted.  For dry ingredients sourced further afield, again, we hold a 100% non-air-freight policy.

Soya milk – Belgium, France, Canada
Tofu, firm – Canada
Edamame – China
Soya yoghurt – France
Tamari- USA and Canada
Miso (red + white) – USA and Canada
Tempeh – Italy

Single portion = between 3.50 – 7.50 GBP (desserts to full meals)

Bundles with 5 portions = from 32.70 GBP

Eating just 3 plant-based meals every week for 1 year saves 600kG of CO2, which is the equivalent of driving from London to Egypt. Additionally, In the span of 5 years, allplants’ food alone has saved over 3,600 tonnes of carbon dioxide from being produced due to not using livestock which is the equivalent of over 44 million plastic bottles being produced.

Allplants is working towards becoming Net-Zero by 2030 and will continue to offset what cannot be reduced or removed. They have carbon-neutral delivery.

Moreover, by using their new packaging liners that come from upcycled materials, allplants manages to approximately halve their CO2 footprint. This is also lighter (as well as their boxes), than the conventional board which means that there is less CO2 to ship.

Lastly, in 2022 alone, Allplants prevented 58.7 tons of CO2e by rescuing food.

You can see the carbon footprint of the dishes on some pack fronts.

100% renewable energy is used in their kitchen and headquarters.

It takes between 15,000 and 20,000 litres of water to produce just one kg of beef. Eating just 3 plant-based meals every week for 1 year saves 370,000 litres of water, which is equivalent to leaving the shower on straight for 33 days. By 2021, allplants collectively saved over 2 billion litres of water.

Eating just 3 plant-based meals every week for 1 year saves almost 1 acre of land, which could be used to plant over 1,000 trees and improve biodiversity. By 2021, allplants helped save over 4,000 acres of land, which is comparable to almost 2,600 football pitches.

Allplants works with nature to revitalise land and create healthy soil that can store carbon and grow nutritious food.

Allplants reduces surplus resources in their supply chain and handles any remaining excess food and packaging.

Additionally, allplants have managed to change their packaging and their new liners are made of a mix of upcycled denim and recycled plastic bottles. You can return these to them so they can reuse them again.

No toxic ingredients are used in the production of these meals.
