Third "CO2-Champion": Léger cream

Léger cream (with a fat content of 15 %) is the third Migros productto be awarded a CO2 label. According to the independent organization climatop, léger cream’s climate impact is 35 % lower than the average of Migros’ cream product range.

Climatop calculated the climate footprint of seven cream products. The best performer was the low fat cream léger. The climate impact in comparison to other cream products is approximatelyt 35 % lower and also clearly lower than the second best performer, Valflora cream (with a fat content of 25 %).

One litre of cream was used as a basis for comparison. Greenhouse gas emissions were measured for the whole lifecycle of the cream, that is from the production of the milk, including stock farming to the production of the cream itself and the transportation to the disposal of the packaging.
