About the company

About the company

Acnova Oy is a Finnish manufacturing company specialising in the development and production of cosmetics, hygiene products, household chemicals, and nonwoven products.

We work in two directions:

  • we produce our own products
  • we provide contract manufacturing (Private Label) for brands in Europe and beyond

Our mission is to create high-quality products with full manufacturing control and European safety standards.

Who we are

ACnova was founded in 2016. The company started as a distributor of disposable products in Finland.

Over the years we have deeply studied the market, customer requirements, and real quality criteria. This led us to a strategic decision: to build our own manufacturing in Finland and move from distribution to full product development and production.

Today, ACnova is a full-cycle manufacturer that brings together:

  • formula development
  • contract manufacturing
  • production of our own brands
  • support for brands at every stage
