A Commitment to Environmental Sustainability Enhancing the Health & Wellness of the World Around Us

An important aspect of Vitaquest’s mission to enhance health and wellness is our commitment to environmental sustainability.

This commitment starts through our work with our ingredient suppliers – where we source ingredients from companies who care about environmental stewardship, sustainable harvesting and fair trade. In our manufacturing operations, we continually work to be less wasteful with materials and energy and have taken significant steps to reduce our environmental impact. Today, the majority of our corrugated packaging materials are derived from 100% recycled content, and we recycle our waste materials. We have installed energy-efficient lighting with motion detector switches throughout our facilities, saving hundreds of thousands of kilowatt hours.

Vitaquest is committed to the preservation and protection of the global environment. We manufacture nutraceuticals and functional foods, which promote the health and well-being of consumers in an environmentally positive manner. We encourage our staff to be more eco-friendly each day, so that together we may achieve our sustainability goals and enhance the wellness of the world around us.
