Meet the Founders
How It All Started
After years as pharmacists, our founders John & Abdul saw first-hand how hard it can be to get the nutrients your body needs – especially on a plant-based diet.
They wanted a better way: effective supplements without the nasties, plastic waste, or chalky tablets. So Vegums was born – vegan gummy vitamins that are good for you and kinder to the planet.

FAQs
Packaging that breaks down naturally into water, CO₂, and biomass under composting conditions.
Our packaging is made from PEFC-accredited plant-based materials like paper, eucalyptus fibre, cassava, and corn starch.
Yes, it’s approved for direct food contact and used widely for food and health products.
97% of UK councils have green waste collections, which could be used for compostable packaging disposal. Always check your local council guidelines first.
Currently, compostable packaging costs 2–3 times more than traditional plastic due to lower economies of scale. We believe it’s worth it for a healthier planet.
It creates a true cradle-to-cradle solution, breaking down naturally after use and returning to the environment without pollution.
Our packaging is independently tested and certified to break down under home or industrial composting conditions without leaving any harmful residues.
Under 26 weeks at home or 12 weeks in industrial composting facilities.
In landfill, compostable packaging behaves like other organic waste such as paper or wood. However, landfill conditions often prevent decomposition due to lack of oxygen and moisture.
No packaging should be littered, but if compostable packaging ends up as litter, it will start to biodegrade naturally in the presence of microbes, moisture, and oxygen.
Unlike traditional plastics that take 500-1000 years to break down and become microplastics, compostable packaging is designed to biodegrade into water, CO₂, and biomass without eco-toxicity, even in marine environments.
