Kallø, a natural food products brand and part of the Ecotone UK family, is making its entry into the dairy alternatives market with the introduction of two new premium oat milks.

This latest debut aligns with the growing consumer demand for clean label, plant-based products that prioritise health, ethical production and sustainability.

The new products, Organic Oat & Protein Milk and Organic Gluten-Free Oat Milk, are crafted with minimal ingredients and processing, reflecting Kallø’s commitment to its 'Naturally Different' ethos.

Both variants are unsweetened and free from preservatives, flavourings, oils and gums, catering to health-conscious consumers seeking high-quality dairy alternatives.

Organic Oat & Protein Milk: This variant boasts 25g of natural plant protein per liter, making it a good choice for consumers looking for functional, dairy-free options without artificial fortification.

Kallø Organic Gluten-Free Oat Milk: Made entirely from 100% gluten-free oats, this product is designed for individuals with gluten sensitivities, offering a clean and minimally processed alternative.

The oat milks will initially be available for purchase online through Amazon and in health food stores across the UK, with a recommended retail price of £2.30.

Caroline Mitchell, free from brand controller at Ecotone UK, said: “We’re excited to bring Kallø’s natural and organic credentials into dairy alternatives. This category typically appeals to consumers who are conscious about their health and the environment. Our products are designed to support those looking to increase their protein intake without compromising on quality.”

Kallø’s foray into dairy alternatives comes on the heels of its successful launch of clean label cooking broths, including Organic Chicken Bone Broth and Vegetable Broth, which have positioned the brand as one of the fastest-selling in the ready-made stock category.

The oat milks will be produced at Ecotone’s B-Corp certified facilities, further underscoring the brand’s commitment to environmentally responsible practices. Additionally, the products will be packaged in fully recyclable cartons, aligning with Kallø’s sustainability goals.

As consumers increasingly seek out clean-label and organic options, Kallø’s entry into the dairy alternatives sector is poised to capture the attention of health-conscious shoppers, reinforcing the brand’s status as a leader in innovative, plant-based products.
