Chlormequat in Oatly?

Question

Hi there! Do you test for chlormequat in Oatly? I wish you guys were still making organic Oatly, but was heartened by your glyphosate free guarantees - now just concerned about all of the other chemicals that might not be as widely known but still very harmful.

Hey @ari_ld,

We’re always picky and aim only for high-quality oats and ingredients to use in our products. For a deep dive into how we select our ingredients you can read this article. We even have a dedicated thread only for glyphosate here, which you seem to have insight on. We work with oat suppliers who regularly test their raw oats for a broad range of pesticide residues to maintain high quality and ensure minimal residual substances are present. To date, test results provided to us show levels far below regulatory thresholds and, in the majority of cases, no detectable results at all.

We've also recently launched the Oat Drink Barista Organic in a few of our European markets, you can see if it's available in your market by clicking on the hamburger menu on our website and selecting your market. Otherwise by responding to this thread!

Love Sophia,
