Sustainability

Two things we can actually evidence, rather than a page of intentions.

Less oil by design
Oven-baking uses a fraction of the cooking oil a fried chip needs: less oil bought, less oil heated, less oil disposed of. This one is structural: it is how the product has been made since 1981, not a programme added later.
Plant-based, and certified
Papy Snacks and Dubai Pofak both hold V-Label Vegan licences, issued by V-Label Italia and approved by the Associazione Vegetariana Italiana. Plant-based snacks carry a lighter footprint than animal-derived ones, and in our case that is an audited claim rather than an assertion.
