Why is Kalū a certified B Corp company?
At Kalū, B Corp Certification is More Than Just a Label—It’s a CommitmentFor us at Kalū, obtaining B Corp certification was not just a formality—it was a declaration of our core values. We believe that a business can do more than just sell products; it can be a force for positive change. But what does this mean in concrete terms? What allowed us to earn this certification? And most importantly, how does it impact you as a consumer?
A Quick Reminder: What is B Corp Certification?
B Corp certification is a globally recognized label awarded to companies that meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. It recognizes businesses that use their operations to create a positive impact on society and the planet. Today, the B Corp community includes over 5,000 companies across more than 80 countries and 150 industries. Here’s why we earned this certification!
1. Our Eco-Friendly Packaging
The environmental impact of packaging is a major issue in the pet food industry. That’s why we dedicated two years of research, analysis, and testing to develop 100% recyclable and carbon-neutral packaging. From design to production, every step has been optimized to minimize our ecological footprint. This commitment to sustainable solutions was a key factor in obtaining our B Corp certification. By choosing Kalū, you support innovation in eco-friendly packaging and actively contribute to reducing plastic waste.
2. Locally Sourced, Sustainable Ingredients—100% Canadian
Our ingredients don’t come from the other side of the world. They are sourced locally and sustainably, ensuring optimal quality while significantly reducing our carbon footprint. By prioritizing Canadian fish and proteins, we support local producers and limit excessive transportation—one of the major environmental impacts in the industry. Our commitment to sustainable ingredients was another key factor in achieving B Corp certification.
3. A Strong Commitment to Community
Being a B Corp isn’t just about environmental responsibility—it’s also about giving back to the community. At Kalū, we believe in the power of solidarity. That’s why we actively support animal shelters and organizations, organize local waste collection initiatives, and promote awareness for more responsible consumption. Every purchase at Kalū directly contributes to these initiatives. When you feed your pet with Kalū, you’re supporting a company that gives back to the community.
4. Concrete Actions for the Planet
We understand that a company’s carbon footprint goes beyond just ingredients and packaging. That’s why we actively offset our greenhouse gas emissions by investing in reforestation projects in Québec. Over the past year, we have planted more than 350 trees. We also organize annual waste collection events with our team and customers—because every small action counts in protecting our environment.
Together, Let’s Make a Difference
Choosing Kalū isn’t just about giving your pet high-quality food. It’s about making a conscious, responsible, and positive choice for the environment, local communities, and the future of our planet. Thanks to you, we can continue moving forward and prove that performance and ethics can go hand in hand.
