MAN, ANIMAL AND NATURE IN BALANCE

Food products bearing the Bio Suisse label are produced sustainably. Bio Suisse-certified farms provide a good livelihood for people today without compromising the opportunities of future generations. They achieve this by balancing the interests of people, animals, and nature. To ensure this balance is maintained in the long term, independent bodies inspect the entire value chain annually. Bio Suisse also supports this process with various sustainability development projects.

BIO-BUDS link

Bio-Knospe products are sustainably produced.

Bud-certified products are sustainable because their production provides people with a good livelihood today without compromising the opportunities of future generations. Producers, processors, and retailers of Bud-certified products achieve this by balancing the interests of people, animals, and nature. This means, among other things, natural growth instead of mass production, and species-appropriate animal husbandry instead of factory farming. The responsible use of all resources protects soil and water and ensures that nature is preserved in all its diversity, allowing people to continue to live in and from it. This balance is guaranteed by the Bio Suisse guidelines, which are among the highest organic standards worldwide.

In the production of Knospe products, the highest quality standards and the preservation of valuable ingredients are paramount. Processing is free of unnecessary additives such as artificial colors and flavors. Naturally, the popular Knospe ready-made products are subject to the same strict standards. Knospe tomato sauce is produced according to Bio Suisse guidelines just as rigorously as Knospe tomatoes. Only Knospe grains, meat, or vegetables are used for Knospe tortelloni. And the same applies to ice cream, orange juice, cookies, and salad dressing as to all Knospe products: adherence to strict guidelines throughout the entire value chain. Regional niche products and specialties are also given special support.

Bud-branded products are agricultural products with real advantages: highest quality and full flavor with the good feeling of having protected nature.

V-VEGETARIAN link

Products bearing the V-Label indicate that they do not contain any animal by-products of any kind.

Consumers are increasingly demanding transparency to quickly and reliably identify vegan and vegetarian products. Currently, only the V-Label offers clarity through standardized criteria for labeling vegan and vegetarian products. Regular testing by an independent laboratory guarantees compliance with the criteria and thus contributes to the quality assurance of the V-Label.
