NUTRISCORE A

  • Columbus has the best Nutri-Score.
    All Columbus eggs receive an A score, a score that more than 90% of the eggs on the market do not achieve.

  • Columbus goes even further than the Nutri-Score.
    The nutritional superiority of Columbus mainly comes from the omega-3, which are not taken into account by the Nutri-Score even though they have proven health benefits.

GOOD FOR MY HEALTH

  • The Columbus ORGANIC egg contains 15 times more omega-3 than a regular organic egg.

  • It also contains 25% less saturated fatty acids than another organic egg.

  • This contributes in having a positive effect on cholesterol.

FROM WELL NOURISHED HENS

  • Our hens receive the best feed, composed of a balanced mix of various seeds (wheat, flax, …) and legumes, all from organic farming. And we add vitamins (B12, E, …).

  • They give it back to us because the quality of what they eat is found in their eggs.

WITH A LOCAL AND RESPONSIBLE APPROACH

  • Our organic livestock farms highly respect animal welfare and all the rules of organic production.

  • We see farmers as real partners. At Columbus, we offer them fair compensation and long-term relationships.

  • Our farms are located in Belgium. This allows a short food chain that reduces the environmental impact.

Testimony of Sebastiaan, one of the breeders of Columbus

Sebastiaan, a veterinarian by training, is a chicken breeder and organic egg producer for Columbus.

He explains his own vision of his profession and the reasons behind his partnership with Columbus.

I am a laying hens farmer. I produce organic eggs for the Columbus brand.

As a veterinarian, the health of our laying hens and animal welfare are two points that are very important for me. I appreciate the partnership with Columbus because they pay very much attention to this point.

Within the collaboration with Columbus, we contribute to producing local food, which I like very much because we contribute to sustainability.

Columbus respects our profession by paying fair and correct prices and by offering solid contracts. I am very proud to contribute to the production of the best eggs on the Belgium market.
