Previously, the packaging for some of Buttermilk’s products was compostable. However, this might not have been the best choice as it can emit more emissions when it decomposes in the wrong environment. Because of this, the packaging for all of their products is planned to be replaced with a lower carbon footprint option of recycled and recyclable materials.
Their newest bar, the nougat bar produces in average 15% lower carbon footprint compared to conventional chocolate bars.
To offset their carbon footprint, Buttermilk has partnered with Fied to Forest to plant trees on land that can’t be used to grow food.
