About the Company

Chew good. Do good! Das ist das Motto von Forest Gum. Unsere Mission: nachhaltige und plastikfreie Snacks – gut für dich und gut für den Planeten.

Wir stellen plastikfreies Kaugummi aus natürlichen, nachwachsenden und biologisch abbaubaren Zutaten her – ohne künstliche Aromen, ohne synthetische Zusatzstoffe und vor allem ohne Plastik als Kaumasse. Denn die steckt in herkömmlichen Kaugummis – und davon werden jährlich rund 580.000 Tonnen gekaut und wieder ausgespuckt. Plastik, das nicht nur in unserem Mund, sondern auch in der Umwelt landet.

Neben unserem Kaugummi bieten wir auch Fruchtgummis an – plastikfrei verpackt, ganz selbstverständlich.

Forest Gum trägt aber nicht nur zur Plastikvermeidung bei, sondern fördert auch aktiv den Waldschutz. Über unser Projekt „Wildwuchs" schützen wir 100 Hektar Wald in Deutschland – für eine Natur, die auch morgen noch besteht.
