Emmental français râpé - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Pâturages' Emmental Français Râpé earns a perfect European Score of 100, sitting at the 54th percentile among 76 grated emmentaler products — a midfield position in a large category. The breakdown assigns 35 points to company headquarters, 35 to manufacturing in France, 15 to distribution, and 10 to ingredients. Proximity earns 5 points. Certifications score 0, reflecting the absence of organic, PDO, or equivalent marks. The labels present — high in calcium, Nutriscore, and Nutriscore Grade D — relate to nutritional communication rather than provenance certification.

The product is manufactured in France, and the company has a presence in both Belgium and France. No ingredient origins are specified beyond the manufacturing location, and no third-party quality certifications are associated with the product.

For a European-minded shopper, this grated emmental delivers a perfect European Score driven by its domestic French manufacturing and European company headquarters, with a full ingredient sub-score indicating no penalisation for non-European sourcing. The Nutriscore Grade D label is a nutritional signal that sits outside the European alignment assessment but may be relevant for shoppers considering the product's dietary profile. At the 54th percentile, it performs around the midpoint of its category. This is a straightforward, commercially positioned grated cheese with no premium certification credentials — its European score reflects geographic alignment rather than any quality or sustainability distinction beyond production location.
