ingredients

All Cenovis products are Made in Australia and contain a range of ingredients formulated based on scientific and traditional evidence to support a number of different benefit areas such as Immune Support and Energy.

Our products are made with quality ingredients and manufactured in a strictly-controlled manner under Good Manufacturing Practices conditions to ensure products are consistently produced and controlled to quality standards. We quality test at multiple points during manufacturing as often as every 15 minutes and if a product doesn’t pass our rigorous quality tests, it doesn’t go on shelf!

DRAG TO EXPLORE

Reducing Carbon Footprint

The site hosts 2696 solar panels, from which we expect to generate approximately 22% of total site electricity

Improving Waste management

Through our ‘Softgel composting’ initiative launched in April 2023, the site diverted 99 tonnes of waste from landfill to composting in the first 12 months after launch. From 67% of our waste going to landfill in 2019, we significantly improved to just 38% in 2023, with 65% now being recycled.

Conserving Resources

In 2023, through more efficient cleaning and water saving initiatives, we reduced our annual water usage by 1,968 kL, demonstrating our dedication to conserving resources.

product disposal

As signatories to the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO), we are committed to making responsible disposal easier for our customers.

In 2024, we started the process of applying Australian Recycling Logos (ARL) to our products to provide our customers with clear and easy-to-understand instructions for responsible recycling.

Below is an example of the recycling logos on our packaging for Cenovis Chewable Mega Vitamin C 1000mg.
