[ Kuvings x Rübenretter ] Together for a better environment without food waste

At Kuvings, we are proud to be committed to sustainability and support the fight against food waste. Kuvings slow juicers and vacuum blenders allow you to get the most out of every ingredient.  because they not only press fruit and vegetables and preserve the highest nutrient content, but also eject the pulp dry during juicing.

This pomace can be excellently recycled in baking or cooking.   

Here, https://kuvings.de/blogs/rezepte/tagged/trester-rezept , you'll find some recipe ideas for using pomace. For example, patties made from vegetable pomace, cakes made from fruit pomace, and cookies made from nut pomace are excellent ways to use pomace. Some customers also give the pomace to their animals, such as chickens, dogs, and more.

This creates a #Zerowaste cycle, and everyone involved benefits.

The collaboration with Rübenretter perfectly reflects our shared values. We firmly believe that we can have a positive impact on our environment through conscious actions and innovative solutions. Therefore, we would like to raise awareness of their mission while encouraging our customers to choose sustainable products and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

We would also like to take this opportunity to talk about an important issue that affects us all: food waste.

Rübenretter GmbH is a company specializing in saving "imperfect" vegetables and fruit from waste. Their mission is to contribute to reducing food waste and preserving the diversity of natural cultivation through close cooperation with farmers and customers.

Too crooked, too slanted, too small, too twisted – there are many reasons why vegetables or fruit are sorted out during harvest and therefore do not reach the market.

Crooked cucumbers, apples with blemishes on the skin or carrots with three legs are therefore usually sorted out.

Yet, odd-shaped fruits and vegetables are just as delicious and healthy. Sometimes we ourselves don't really know why some things get thrown out. Often, it's simply because they're not the standard size or are simply surplus.

This waste results in up to 50% of a harvest being rejected due to visual defects alone, and up to 30% of the world's arable land being used pointlessly.

Through their vegetable shops, they learned from suppliers how many of the "imperfect" crops were thrown away due to cosmetic defects. From that point on, Beet Rescuers were determined to do something about it.

They also noticed how important this issue is to our customers. Fortunately, there has been a shift in attitude in recent years, so that the majority of customers are quite willing to use vegetables and fruit that do not meet the standard. This led to the birth of the Beetroot Rescue project, which, in close collaboration with vegetable growers and with your help, is contributing to sustainable consumption. Everyone can do something to combat the waste of delicious fruit and vegetables.

The philosophy of Rübenretter is to save under-appreciated vegetables and fruit. Thanks to their work at the fruit and vegetable shop in Neumarkt, they have many years of experience with food.

They maintain close contact with their farmers, who constantly inform them about what's not perfect on the plant and needs to be saved. Together with you, they can improve the farmers' harvest by up to 40%!

The goal of Rübenretter is to preserve vegetables in their diversity and natural growth. They want to combat the enormous amount of food waste and give even ingredients that don't fit perfectly into standardized crates a chance.

Together we can make a positive contribution to our environment and help ensure that fruit and vegetables are fully utilized.
