Why Nordic oats

From Nordic fields to quality ingredients

1
Grown in a cool climate
Cold winters naturally limit pests, while long, bright summer days support steady growth, large groats and a clean, mild flavour.
2
Quality you can trace
Short, domestic grain chains and farmer contracting. Mills typically work under FSSC 22000, ISO and HACCP systems, with gluten-free segregation and organic options where applicable.
3
Naturally rich in beta-glucan
Oats provide soluble fibre, plant protein, B vitamins and minerals. Oat beta-glucan has been shown to lower blood cholesterol.*
4
Circular by design
Hulls and side streams go to energy, feed or new ingredients, such as xylitol made from oat hulls.

* High cholesterol is a risk factor in the development of coronary heart disease. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3 g of oat beta-glucan.
