Noble Foods launches eco-friendly eggs
 

Noble Foods, the UK's leading egg company, has launched a new eco-friendly free-range egg called "Ecowise".

Noble Foods has developed the product in order to provide consumers the option to buy eco-friendly eggs by choosing a pack that can be recycled and a method that is not only free-range but also minimises carbon effects.

The Eco project seeks to produce a farm's required power through renewable energy sources while having additional foliage and trees to capture carbon and to enrich the range for the hens, according to Finn Cottle, marketing director of Noble Foods.
 

The Ecowise hens are British, eating cereal based vegetarian diet and are accredited by the British Lion Code of Practise.
 

The Ecowise eggs are available at a cost of GBP 1.49 for half a dozen.
