We Bring Decades of Experience

Over the course of our history, we’ve become a world-leading distributor of functional ingredients while expanding our strategic services, portfolio diversity, and global reach — all so we can better serve our customers. We’re ready to help solve your next ingredient, premix, or formulation challenge.  

Utilising our combined knowledge to maximise your business    

Portfolio growth and enhancement has been a pillar of the Prinova business for the last 40 years, so it was no surprise when Nagase Group of Japan declared an interest and acquired Prinova Group in 2019, significantly expanding their Life Sciences business. 

 

The acquisition opened the door to a much wider network of science and technology knowledge across multiple business areas. This enabled a strengthening of closely aligned values to ensure we recognise new business opportunities, and help customers identify, develop, and expand with solutions to drive value and a sustainable future.

          Environmental Priorities and Sustainable Practices

          Our sustainability efforts are designed to make a positive environmental impact in the following areas:  

          • Air pollution 

          • Discharge to sewer  

          • Energy management 

          • Hazardous waste  

          • Environmental noise 

          • Oil storage 

          • Recycling, re-use, and recovery

          • Product and packaging waste disposal 

          • Waste electrical equipment policy  

          • Carbon footprint and climate change 

          Proven Commitment to Corporate Sustainability

          Prinova is an auditing member of Supplier Ethical Data Exchange, or Sedex. Through this partnership, our manufacturing facilities receive the 4-Pillar Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit  (best known as SMETA-4 pillar audit) every three years. In 2021, the same standards were applied to our activity as an agent and broker in Europe.

          At Prinova, we’re committed to understanding how our business makes an impact, so we can take steps toward reducing our emissions. Since 2017, we’ve participated in the CDP Initiative, which allows us to provide transparent emissions data to our customers. By 2022, we plan to include Scope 1 (direct), Scope 2 (indirect), and Scope 3 (supply chain) emissions data in our CDP submission.  

          In addition to reaching our goal of 100 percent power from renewable energy, Prinova Solutions Europe Limited is now working with a specialist waste disposal company to increase the percentage of manufacturing byproduct that gets recycled.

          Assessing Success and Adjusting Solutions

          Prinova’s enterprise-wide environmental practices are regularly assessed to ensure our facilities and operations adhere to sustainability best practices, whenever possible. We have engaged the help of Eco3 Partnership to monitor, report and guide improvements in our energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Their expertise will allow us to identify areas for improvement and lead the company towards increasingly sustainable practices, supporting us on our journey towards net zero.
