When investing in equipment, appliances, and tools – whether it’s a car, oven, or yes, even pest control tools – it’s only natural to want to know that you’re buying from a brand you can trust.
At the heart of Connovation are dedicated, experienced individuals bringing new ideas and efficient tools to the pest control industry. These passionate experts are working together to bring you effective, easy-to-use products you can trust to help combat the scourge of predators that threaten New Zealand’s unique and diverse flora and fauna.
Our CEO, Duncan has been heading up Connovation for over 20 years. His commitment to hands-on research and development processes have been instrumental in many innovative pest control tools. He has been able to drive the business’s strategic direction using his extensive commercial experience (including 40 years as a chartered accountant). Under his guidance, Connovation is currently positioned as one of the leading manufacturers of vertebrate toxin agents in Aotearoa.
The term General Manager can mean a lot of things. At Connovation, this involves largely the operations side of things: these tasks include things like health & safety, quality assurance, and compliance. Victoria also works closely with Duncan to facilitate the continued strategic development of the company. Victoria’s experience working in operational planning has helped drive the growth of the business over the more than 10 years she has been part of the Connovation team.
Westly is responsible for the day-to-day running of the factory, a strong leader for the manufacturing team who work hard to make sure every unit we sell is up to standard. Over the 5 years he has been part of Connovation, he has used his significant experience in a variety of manufacturing industries to help improve our production processes.
As a team, the people behind Connovation have certain values that are the core of what we do as a company:
As a world leader in the research, development, and manufacture of pest control products, Connovation put in the work. We are continually conducting extensive research to identify new and improved pest control technologies.
We collaborate with scientists and educational institutions around the world. We then take those ideas through layers of development to make them practicable for you. This has led to our wide range of products that can be used to suit your needs while also allowing your pest control project to be completed in a safe manner.
With these practical tools ready for implementation, we are committed to leading the fight against those introduced species which have had devastating effects on the natural environment of New Zealand.
To minimise further impact on the wider environment, we deliver products that are as eco-friendly, as humane, and as user-friendly as possible. Our team has the expertise and the passion to take the guesswork out of it for you.
The Department of Conservation is aiming for a Predator-Free Aotearoa by 2050, and we aim to help make that possible. We believe that by making innovative pest control tools accessible and practical for New Zealanders of any skill level and environmental setting, we can all be part of that lofty goal.
