We’re on a mission to make vegan nutrition simple, sustainable, and delicious — better for your body and the planet.

Nourishing Your Health, Naturally

Meet the Founders

How It All Started


After years as pharmacists, our founders John and Abdul saw how challenging it can be to get essential nutrients on a plant-based or vegan diet. They set out to create a better solution — effective vegan supplements without the nasties, plastic waste, or chalky tablets. That’s how Vegums was born: vegan gummy vitamins made in the UK, designed to support your health and protect the planet.

Each gummy delivers science-backed nutrition in plastic-free, sustainable packaging, making it simple — and delicious — to do good for your body and the Earth.

The 4 Values That Guide Every Gummy We Make

What We Stand For...

Although our gummies are suitable for everyone, every Vegums product is certified vegan by The Vegan Society. This guarantees that each ingredient — from vitamins to natural flavours — is carefully traced back to its source to ensure no animal products or by-products are used at any stage. The result? 100% vegan, cruelty-free gummy vitamins that you can feel good about taking every day.

Our Home-Compostable Packaging

FAQs

What is compostable packaging?

Our home-compostable packaging naturally breaks down into water, CO₂, and biomass under composting conditions — leaving no harmful residue behind. It means you can toss our pouches into your home compost bin knowing they’ll return safely to the earth.

What is Vegums packaging made from?

Our packaging is made from PEFC-accredited, plant-based materials including paper, eucalyptus fibre, cassava, and corn starch. Every pouch is designed to be plastic-free, biodegradable, and home-compostable, helping to protect the planet while keeping your vitamins fresh.

Is compostable packaging safe for food?

Our packaging is made from PEFC-accredited, plant-based materials like paper, eucalyptus fibre, cassava, and corn starch. It’s plastic-free, biodegradable, and home-compostable — designed to protect both your vitamins and the planet.

Yes, it’s approved for direct food contact and is widely used across food and health products, ensuring it’s completely safe, hygienic, and reliable for everyday use.

Can I put Vegums packaging in my green waste bin?

97% of UK councils have green waste collections, which could be used for compostable packaging disposal. Always check your local council guidelines first.

Is compostable packaging more expensive?

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.

How does compostable packaging support the circular economy?

It creates a true cradle-to-cradle solution, breaking down naturally after use and returning to the environment without pollution.

Will Vegums packaging actually compost?

Our packaging is independently tested and certified to break down under home or industrial composting conditions without leaving any harmful residues.

How long does it take to compost?

Under 26 weeks at home or 12 weeks in industrial composting facilities.

What happens if compostable packaging goes to landfill?

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.

What if compostable packaging is littered?

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.

What if it ends up in the ocean?

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.
