Q) Why has MitoQ rebranded?
Mahara: Quite frankly, we looked the same as everyone else, but we're NOT the same as everyone else. No one has our unique technology. No one else can make the difference to cells that we can. And unfortunately, not many people understand the importance of cells in their overall wellbeing.
Rebranding is one of the steps we are taking to raise awareness around the importance of cells AND draw attention to our unique technology.
Q) What changes can customers expect as a result of the rebrand?
Mahara: First off, there have been no changes to the formulations that have been so successful with our customers. The biggest alterations involve a shift toward more sustainable packaging, and slight adjustments in the way we talk about MitoQ. We will be talking a lot more about the importance of alleviating cell stress and the unique role that MitoQ plays in revitalizing people's cells. We want to connect with people and show just what an empowered and energized life without cell stress can look like.
Overall, we just want people to have a much richer and more engaging experience with MitoQ.
Q) Why has MitoQ’s packaging changed?
Mahara: We received customer feedback on our packaging and found an opportunity to:
A) improve the sustainability
B) improve the functionality/usability
C) reinforce the quality and efficacy of the product with an upgraded unboxing experience; and
D) create a showpiece by which people can start a conversation about cell health.
Q) What measures has MitoQ taken to be more sustainable?
Mahara: I am personally passionate about sustainability and it’s important to note that this is the first step in our overall sustainability journey. We fully acknowledge there is more to be done.
Our packaging improvements include:
- We have nearly halved the size of our bottle (190ml to 100m) to ensure there’s no shipping of excess air.
- We've improved the recyclability by developing a minimum polypropylene bottle and cap.
- The box that protects our bottle is made from environmentally responsible paper which has been produced using PEFC certified pulp from responsible sources, and any print uses environmentally friendly inks, which allows the package to be 100% recycled or composted.
- Where possible, we have shifted to recycled plastic courier bags which are 100% recyclable.
