Premium ingredients are essential for great tasting recipes. For us, it all starts with sourcing the best we can. Many of our base ingredients are British, selected with sustainability in mind.

Palm Oil

We ensure that all products in our range that contain palm oil only include RSPO-certified (SG) sustainable palm oil. SG stands for segregated, which means the sustainable palm oil can come from different certified sources but is kept separate from ordinary palm oil throughout the supply chain.

Frank Dale Food - Packaging Sustainability

Packaging

All products in the Frank Dale portfolio are no longer presented in black plastic but now feature in clear recyclable packaging and corrugated 100% recycled board. The revised packaging will result in 10 tonnes of black plastic per annum being saved from landfill.
