At Northern Hound, we have meticulously examined each step of our products life cycle and found the most environmentally friendly solutions. We have selected local suppliers of ingredients wherever possible, we have also sourced and repurposed ingredients that would otherwise be headed for the land fill. 97% of our insect protein is upcycled from pre-consumer food waste. Our final produce is packaged in a home compostable bag that is also recyclable within the standard paper pulp stream
