The Glass Is Greener On Our Side
In an industry overflowing with plastic packaging, we aim to keep the modern consumers sustainability demands in mind while focusing on several advantages our glass packaging provides.
Recyclable
Our glass bottles are 100% recyclable and significantly decreases environmental impact and carbon footprint.
UV Protection
Amber glass absorbs the most comprehensive range of light waves and protects the product from UV light. This is important because UV rays can sometimes affect the stability of the product by changing the composition of the ingredients.
Safer Material Interaction
Given the natural qualities of glass, no harmful chemicals can leach into the product. - In a study from Environmental Health Perspective, scientists found over 70% of plastic leaches hormone- mimicking chemicals into the substance it stores.
Our Journey
Our pharmacist, Ellis Henen graduated from Rhodes University in 1963 with a Bachelor’s degree in Pharmacy.
After arriving in Cape Town, in 1964 he set up a night pharmacy in Sea Point Cape Town. The pharmacy operates at Sea Point Medical Centre and has celebrated its 58th anniversary.
In the 1980’s, he served as an external examiner for the Technikon’s Pharmacy Business Practice program. Ellis Henen earned a Master’s degree in Business Leadership in 1981.
It was during the 1990’s that he launched the Private Label Vitamin range for South African Druggists and Link Voluntary Chain of Pharmacies.
During the late 1990s he began developing the Biolife vitamin range and launched the first product early in 2004, with other products following at regular intervals.
It was at this point that Biolife Nutrition was founded.
Medical Aids
Most Biolife products have official NAPPI codes which is a recognised medical aid product code. Our products can be claimed through Medical Aid if you buy them at one of our listed Pharmacies.
