Planet Amino

Why Planet Amino?

Power cookies were developed by two cookie enthusiasts who want to use plant based protein sources rather than animal based protein sources in protein cookies.  We both have done sports actively since we were kids. At some point during adulthood, we started  being more interested about the nutritional side of sports. We don’t personally follow vegan diets yet, but we are interested in reducing animal based protein in our diets due to environmental and ethical concerns. However, we aren’t satisfied with existing plant based protein options. Plant based protein options should be able to compete with quality and price against animal based protein products, in order to achieve change that really matters. Better products are needed, and we are giving our best shot at it.

What does this concretely mean?

We think that sustainable products and ingredients are produced efficiently, close to the customer and with respect towards the environment and workers rights. We are using these selection criterias for our suppliers. We also strive to operate efficiently and minimize waste. Currently our biggest challenges are related to packaging materials because we need to be able to get our products to market at a reasonable price.

Finnish products are known for their high quality. High quality requirements come from legislation. High quality manufacturing processes are verified by independent auditors. We will perform an IFS 7 audit during 2021-2022. IFS is a recognized standard for auditing food manufacturers. The focus of IFS 7 is on food safety and the quality of processes and products. (for more information, visit: www.ifs-certification.com).

We are focusing on quality control, in order to have the best protein products on the market. Additionally, our company demands GFSI grade certifications from our suppliers.

I have always loved creative, simple ways to solve problems. New, and better innovations for old problems or out-dated solutions, excite me. I am not an engineer, but I still think that most issues are just simply ‘’engineering problems’’…
