The Rondeelegg is a true milestone for us chickens and our planet. It is the very first product where we can enjoy top-notch animal welfare, wrapped in a On the way to PlanetProof jacket.
This is truly something extraordinary!
Unique packaging
Our Rondeeleggs are sold in round, biodegradable egg cartons made from natural material fiber and potato starch. These boxes are produced with leftover materials and are bio-based. After use, they can be safely disposed of in the green waste bin or in the compost pile, where they promote the composting process of organic waste.
This packaging material is more sustainable than traditional egg packaging, with a low carbon footprint thanks to an energy-efficient production process and local raw materials. The potato starch box has only 1/10 of the CO2 emissions compared to the familiar paper egg box. Our responsible packaging helps reduce environmental impact and contributes to a more sustainable approach to eggs.
On the way to PlanetProof
Our eggs are very special because they not only meet high animal welfare standards, but also the On the way to PlanetProof label. This is an exceptional achievement of which we are proud.
Code on the egg
The code on my egg tells you everything you need to know about me and my eggs. The “2” means I lived in a cozy free-range environment. “NL” shows that I come from the Netherlands, the land of windmills and cheese. The 7 digits are the specific code of the farm I come from. The green R on the head of the egg makes it a recognizable Rondeel egg.
Available at Albert Heijn
It is important that consumers consciously choose responsibly packaged eggs and thereby contribute to a better environment. By choosing our Rondeel Egg, you contribute to the sustainability of the total egg concept.
If you only knew how wonderful my days are, you would never want a different egg. I live at Rondeel, where they are kind to us chickens so that we can scratch around the farm happy and healthy. As a result, I proudly lay the tastiest eggs, which can now also be found on the shelves of your very own Albert Heijn. Next time you’re shopping, think of me and make the animal-friendly choice by going for Rondeel eggs. That way we can enjoy life and a tasty breakfast together. Together we make a difference!
Certification
As chickens, we like the farmer to take good care of us. So he does because the better off we are, the more and tastier eggs are laid. According to animal welfare experts at Wageningen University, our welfare as chickens is similar to the welfare of organic chickens. This recognition can also be seen because of the quality marks on the Rondeel boxes in the store.
