Ruco Paints is an Australian maker of sustainably-made paints using natural earth and mineral pigments and ethically sourced micas wherever possible. Their binder is made from filtered rainwater, raw gum arabic crystals, glycerin and pure rosemary oil making it 100% natural and vegan.Their beautiful paint pans are hand built in small batches, double fired at a local kiln and glazed inside so they will last a lifetime with care and are refillable. Their boxes are cut, stained, assembled and finished in their own studio from Tasmanian oak. The handles that adorn them change each release but are all hand dug Australian crystal pieces - all unique and with their own magic from the earth.
The Real Good Food Group is a place several brands like to call home. In 2010, they welcomed The Gluten Free Food Co with a range of 8 premium gluten free bake mixes and flour blends. All products are created using whole flours and seed meals, no nut meal, organic ingredients and are totally plant based. In 2017, they released the Vegan Mac n Cheez and soon afterwards welcomed Plantasy Foods. The Mac n Cheez and the Protein Patty joined Plantasy in its quest to champion nutritious, delicious, gluten free plant based convenience foods. Plantasy Foods now has 18 products in the range and loads more on the horizon.

No Bones opened its doors in April 2018 with a mission to change the way people think about vegan food. Their goals for 2022 are to become 100% carbon neutral and to make sure they are using 90% Australian made/grown produce and products, to reduce their environmental impact. This year, No Bones has started working with Farmers Footprint to ensure they are working closely with local farmers who are growing food the way nature intended, regeneratively.
