In 2016, the remaining Bornean orangutan population was estimated at just 57,350. The single greatest threat facing orangutans today is habitat loss. The expanding palm oil industry has been a key driver of this deforestation. BOS Australia’s palm oil policy supports the use of identity-preserved and segregated certified sustainable palm oil (CSPO). We believe its adoption is achievable in the Australian market if sufficient consumer pressure is brought to bear. We also advocate for compulsory labelling of Palm Oil Products. You can read our full policy here. We do not advocate a boycott of Palm Oil, but we respect your rights as consumers to make your own decisions. BOS Australia is a member of The Australasian Responsible Palm Oil Network and the position statement can be viewed here – Responsible Palm Oil Network. About 19% of palm oil production is now certified sustainable palm oil (CSPO). This oil has been produced according to a set of environmental and social criteria designed to ensure the rights of local communities are respected and that no new primary forests or high conservation value areas are cleared for palm oil production since November 2005. Due to the growing awareness within the general public, increasing pressure has been applied to corporations. This has meant that in recent years a number of major retailers and manufacturers are now committed to moving to CSPO. BOS Australia has put together a list of products which manufacturers tell us are palm oil free or contain segregated certified sustainable palm oil. Some things to consider when reviewing this list: • The list was updated in March 2020 and is not all inclusive. There may be other products which are palm oil free or CSPO – if you know of any, please send details through to us at [email protected] • Where labelling is not definitive, we have attempted to confirm the information through letters from our supporters to the manufacturers. • The list is not an official accreditation of suppliers’ claims as we do not conduct independent product testing. There are heavy penalties for making false claims on the packaging so when a supplier claims ‘No Palm Oil’, we take that as an honest and informed claim. • Membership of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil alone is not a sufficient guarantee of sustainability. CPSO certification is a demanding standard but we are yet to uncover many Australia producers sourcing certified sustainable palm oil. • Product specifications can change regularly, so please advise us of any new information you may come across or if you suspect palm oil to be in any of the products on our list. Please email us at [email protected] • The list is based on the specification for products sold in Australia. International brands may have different specifications in different countries – for example - a company may use CSPO in products they manufacture in Australia but may not when they manufacture the same product overseas. • The list is based on a product-by-product basis rather than at company level. Many companies listed manufacture other products that do contain palm oil. • This is advice only and you should verify the details with the manufacturers. The more calls the manufacturers receive, the more they will consider positive changes. • Thank you to our wonderful volunteers who kindly put this list together.
