About Actimel
Actimel is the UK's leading probiotic yoghurt drink brand, produced by French dairy giant Danone. Launched in Belgium in 1994, Actimel has become the number one dairy immune support shot in Europe and is now enjoyed in over 26 countries worldwide. The brand's origins trace back to Danone's research in the 1980s, culminating in 1990 with the discovery of their proprietary bacterial culture, L. casei Danone (also known as L. casei DN-114 001 or L. casei Imunitass). This unique probiotic strain forms the heart of every Actimel bottle. Actimel uses a special slow fermentation process lasting over eight hours, allowing cultures to grow in optimal conditions. This enables billions of live cultures to be packed into every 100ml bottle. Combined with vitamins D and B6, Actimel is marketed to support immune health and overall wellbeing. The UK range includes Original, Strawberry, Multifruit, Raspberry, Blueberry & Pomegranate, and seasonal flavours. Fat-free options are available for health-conscious consumers, and multipacks come in various sizes from 4-packs to 12-packs for family convenience. Danone has made significant sustainability improvements, reducing Actimel bottle plastic weight by 40% since 1994 and eliminating labels on smaller bottles, saving 868 tonnes of plastic annually across Europe. The brand continues to innovate while maintaining its core focus on live culture dairy drinks.
