Manufacturing at Opella

At Opella we believe in science-proven ingredients that enable natural movements in your gut, and all our products are produced following FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) Good Manufacturing Practices requirements, in a strictly controlled environment.

We’ve Partnered With How2Recycle®

At Opella Canada Inc., we are working to reduce packaging waste. We have partnered with How2Recycle^®, a labeling system designed to provide recycling guidance, to help identify recycling options for our packaging. By using How2Recycle^® labels, we aim to give consumers clearer information to support their recycling efforts.

Climate action

In 2025, Opella has reduced emissions by 70% for Scopes 1 and 2 versus 2019. The group uses 100% renewable electricity in operations.

Waste reduction and Water efficiency improvement

In 2025, Opella achieved zero waste to landfill at all 11 eligible manufacturing sites.

Optimizing water use is an essential practice at Opella. By upgrading equipment for greater efficiency and optimizing water consumption for water-intensive activities, such as cleaning, we have reduced water withdrawal by 2.8% compared with 2024.

Certified Packaging

We're on a journey toward more sustainable packaging for our products.

Our cartons are manufactured using FSC or SFI certified materials that follow practices to ensure our forests are protected.

SFI Certification

DulcoLax cartons display The Sustainable Forestry Initiative logo to signify that our cartons have been sourced and manufactured in an environmentally responsible manner. This certification reflects that the paperboard source for our cartons comes from noncontroversial sources in the supply chain (recycled content, certified forests, and small family forest owners).
