97% fewer emissions than beef

measured, not marketed

Millow's footprint is measured per kilogram across the lifecycle and compared like-for-like with beef - figures built to drop into CSR reporting, EU climate goals and public-procurement quotas without a caveat.

Built for the audit: every figure on this page ships with its workings.

Measured per kilogram produced across the lifecycle, compared like-for-like with beef.

Four figures your CSR report can cite

the lifecycle numbers

Per-kilogram lifecycle comparison against beef. Each headline keeps its underlying quantities next to it - cite them exactly as they read.

  • 97%less CO₂0.32 kg vs 21 kg CO₂e per kg
  • 660×less water3 L vs 2,000 L per kg
  • 71%less energy4 vs 14 kWh per kg
  • 77,000×less landa shed vs ~19,000 ha

All figures are measured per kilogram produced, across the full lifecycle, compared like-for-like with beef.

Nordic oats. Made in Sweden. Short chains.

local by design

Millow is grown on rain-fed Nordic oats and made in Sweden - one short, traceable supply chain that reads the same in a procurement file as it does here. It also sits where European funding is already pointing: the approach is EU-backed.

× less land than beef

Beef: 550,000 kg/year needs ~19,000 ha - the area of Stockholm!

Millow: 550,000 kg/year fits in a shed a third the size of a soccer field…

Documentation, not declarations

audit-ready

Every figure on this page comes with its workings. The lifecycle + CSR data pack collects them in a format your reporting - and your auditor - can use:

  • Per-kg lifecycle figures vs beef - CO₂e, water, energy and land, each with its underlying quantities
  • Sourcing and production - Nordic oats, made in Sweden, one short traceable chain
  • Full nutrition profile - up to 29g protein per 100g, all 9 essential amino acids, high fibre (β-glucans)

97% fewer emissions. 100% clean label. 0% compromise.
