Palmolja policy
Palm oil is in many aspects a good, vegetable oil. At the same time the production of the oil suffers from social and environmental challenges. We have agreed to the following policy regarding the use of Palm oil under the Semper brand.
Semper Brand policy on use of palm oil
- Never use palm oil in our Baby food products
