Acquizhen range


The ACQUIZHEN product range contains cleansers, creams, serums and more, that protects your body against ageing, while revitalising and improving the microcirculation of your skin – helping keep both you – and the planet – healthy and vibrant.


ACQUIZHEN combines accurate science with the best nature to create an innovation in skincare, which is both certified organic and sustainable. Naturally sourced ingredients are optimally formulated, based on research at the Dermal-Research-Laboratories, by Dr Erich Schulte, who has been at the forefront of skincare and skin improvement for decades. In creating the ACQUIZHEN skincare range, he has applied contemporary scientific knowledge to deliver active ingredients (which naturally occur in plants) in effective formulations.


THOUGHTFUL LIFESTYLE

We aim to use not only the purest ingredients but also the simplest and most effective extraction techniques to put active ingredients in our skincare range. Some ingredients used in ACQUIZHEN products are harvested from the wild. To meet our certification standards the harvesting of these products must be sustainable. We also aim to use ingredients which provide a fair wage to people at the plants source as well as maintaining the natural resources that they rely on.


COMMITTMENT TO THE ENVIRONMENT

Using ingredients that are harvested from organic or sustainable wild sources is only the first step in delivering our products in a considered manner. With a minimum of 99.20% of our active ingredients derived from natural sources we have responded to the logical as well as emotional motivation to embed sustainable business practice through the whole chain.

TREES FOR THE FUTURE
We plant one tree for every product purchased. ACQUIZHEN has partnered with Trees for the Future, a non-profit organization that plants trees around the world in communities struggling with severe problems related to deforestation; an agroforestry resource center helping people improve their rural livelihoods through the introduction of environmentally sustainable land management projects focused on beneficial tree planting.
ORGANIC CERTIFICATION
We chose ECOCERT as our certifying body because it is internationally recognised, and because we felt that the standards emphasise that ACQUIZHEN’s products are derived from nature.
ECOCERT is the body that certifies all our products as organic as shown in the ECOCERT ORGANIC COSMETIC logo on product packaging. The ECOCERT standards apply to the products and to the manufacturing process by which they are made and also specifies respect and transparency towards to the consumer as well.
Key principles of the certification
Principals include a minimum of 95% of plant ingredients are organic or sustainably harvested from the wild, ingredients are not derived from genetically modified organisms or from the petrochemical industry, products are not tested on animals and do not contain parabens. Environmentally cleaning products must be used at the place of manufacture and products must be packaged in recyclable formats and secondary packaging must be made from recyclable materials or recyclable.

Balanced food for your pup

ACANA Puppy & Junior Dog Food, 2.5kg, R175 and 13.5kg, R599



Compete and Balanced for medium breed puppies!

Mother nature evolved all puppies as carnivores and adapted them for a rich and varied diet of meats with smaller amounts of fruits, vegetables and grasses.

That’s why ACANA Puppy & Junior is loaded with human-grade meat ingredients (60%) including free-run chicken and whole eggs from Canadian prairie farms, and Pacific salmon from North Vancouver Island – all delivered fresh each day so they’re never frozen and use no preservatives.

High-protein and low-carbohydrate to match your puppy’s natural foods, this exceptional ACANA diet is free of wheat, corn and gluten (ingredients most often associated with digestive disorders in puppies).  Instead, ACANA features local fruits and vegetables plus steel-cut Alberta oats – healthful, low-glycemic carbohydrates that are rich in beta-glucans and ideally suited to your puppy’s sensitive stomach.

Fresh , never-frozen Pacific salmon is a superb source of unrendered omega-3 fatty acids (EPA, DHA) to support your puppy’s immunity as well as a luxuriant skin and hair coat.

Organic sea vegetables and prairie botanicals – including juniper berries and marshmallow root – supply natural-source antioxidants and phytonutrients to enhance metabolism and nourish the entire body.
