Climate protection: our responsibility

Climate protection: our responsibility

We believe that enjoying oneself and taking responsibility for others are closely interconnected. Especially in the fight against climate change, it is essential to act today to preserve the planet for future generations. For Edle Tropfen in Nuss, an important step is to reduce energy consumption, which we are achieving at our Edle Tropfen in Nuss plants by means of an energy management system. In addition, we have switched our electricity supply to 100% green electricity and are operating an efficient combined heat and power plant. The long-term goal is to achieve climate neutrality for the company. Since 2020, we have been balancing our climate impact throughout the KRÜGER GROUP in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol. For accounting years 2020 and 2021, this included GHG scope 1 and scope 2. Since the beginning of accounting year 2022, it has additionally encompassed scope 3.

Environmental protection without compromising enjoyment

Environmental protection with no restrictions on enjoyment

Edle Tropfen in Nuss, with its melt-in-the-mouth chocolate, crunchy nuts, and liquid center, is a very delicate product and must therefore be carefully protected during transport and storage. In order for this premium specialty to be enjoyed at any time during its shelf life, the packaging must, first and foremost, provide protection for our chocolates. But protecting the environment is just as important to us. To protect the forests, we have already switched to using raw materials from sustainable forestry for the cardboard and paper that make up our packaging. Regarding the gold-colored protective plastic insert, we are currently working on the changeover to a material that can be easily recycled.

Raw materials

Raw materials

The basis for the greatest enjoyment is choice raw materials. To us, when it comes to raw materials such as cocoa, sustainability means that families in the producing countries can live well from farming them and, at the same time, that the trade in these raw materials is conducted in an ecologically friendly way which takes the livlihood of coming generations into account. The Edle Tropfen in Nuss brand is therefore a partner of cocoa commitment, the solution-oriented cocoa sustainability program.

It’s the interplay
of the components
that counts

Just as the interplay between brandy and liqueur, and nuts and chocolate, ensures incomparable enjoyment in the case of Edle Tropfen in Nuss, it is also the combination of various elements that counts when it comes to sustainability. Hence, when aiming to preserve the planet, it is vital to devote attention to all factors, including climate and environmental protection as well as the use of raw materials according to high standards of social responsibility.

Sustainability is
a MATTER THAT IS very close
to our hearts

Sustainability plays a major role in all our thoughts and actions. We want future generations to be able to enjoy Edle Tropfen in Nuss, too, and for everyone involved in its production to make a good living—from the cocoa farmer in Africa to the production worker at one of our plants. This is possible only if we treat our planet and its resources with care, that is, if we don’t consume more of any raw material than can be regrown or recycled. We are working hard to achieve this goal.
