May 6 Updates:

  • All orders now shipping within 1 day.
  • Our customer service team is about 2 days behind on emails and are doing their best to catch up (all are doing overtime and we have just hired more people too).
  • Thank you EVERYONE for your patience and overwhelming support while we have been scrambling to get these orders out.

Deal Notes:

In case you're unfamiliar with Amino Z, we're a supplement manufacturer/retailer. And now we're making hand sanitiser in our facility (who'd have guessed). All the obvious reasons why with the gyms being closed.

We are again doing this completely in-house. There's no importing of product and everything is local (ingredients, labour and packaging). Frankly we're just making basic, no-frills hand sanitiser. This is the TGA COVID-19 formulation.

Here's the rundown:

  • It's in an ugly plastic jerry container (We found these after literally days of hunting down containers)
  • I personally created the sticker in Photoshop (Hence why no-frills as this represents the extent of my graphics design skills. As a side note, I am still very jealous of the artwork skills of some of the distilleries.)
  • It's 80% ethyl alcohol (ethanol) with distilled water and propylene glycol (1.45% v/v) and hydrogen peroxide (0.125% v/v). This has been updated as per the TGA guidelines for the COVID-19 pandemic here. This is a slightly viscous liquid formula and is not a gel.
  • It's 100% Australian: We make it in Sydney. Ingredients are all Australian sourced. The bottles are manufactured in Victoria. The labels are printed in Queensland.

The deal is $19.95 each (that's for 1 Litre). Order 4 or more and get free shipping, otherwise shipping is $9.99 Australia Wide (or you can pickup for free).

Plus you'll get $5 back as store-credit per unit. It will be credited to your email once the order ships out and can be used as a discount on any future purchase. Perhaps some added motivation to get back to the gym when they reopen? :)

Orders will now ship within 1 day.

As compared to when we initially launched the deal on April 14th, our cost prices have gone up as I've had to scramble to find more ingredients. However since there will be a slightly longer lead time than last time, I figure it's only fair to keep the deal identical. Plus the previous experience was terrible for some people who spent hours trying to purchase, I cannot in good faith increase this price for all of those who missed out. Instead the only change is that we're accepting credit card (MC/VISA/AMEX) payment directly (using eWay) as to avoid the higher fees of other payment processors (ie. cut out the middle man so we can still make this feasible).

I am aware there have been a number of hand sanitiser deals on Ozbargain lately. I'm hoping that this represents good value given the costs of the components we had to source. Happy to answer any questions!

        • Ok think it worked. Thank you

          • @CookieT: Oh great! Thanks for persisting! Appreciate the order!

            • Jay
  • Thank you for the good price for the product and being active in here.
    Without that I wouldn't have tried over and over again. Finally I got placing an order. Over 3 hours patient was worth it.

    • +1

      Oh man, I can't tell you how much I appreciate the effort. Thank you so much for the order and patience with our horrible servers!

      • Jay
  • Check your email or bank account guys. Your order might have gone through without you realising it because the webpage is so slow and we keep refreshing or getting errors. I checked my junk mail and got notifications from AZ.

    • Absolutely and feel free to reach out if there's any concern. Our team is going to be hammered with the volume of orders, but they will be doing their best to get back to you as soon as possible.

      • Jay
  • Geez.. I was able to place the order through PayPal finally… This was harder than getting those AirPods on Ebay last year :D

    Thanks Jay

    • Haha! I'm so sorry for that but thank you for your patience and for the order!

      • Jay
  • after more then 90 mins of refresh i think its time for me to stop, if i continue i think ill die of frustration instead of COVID 19

    • Completely empathise with you and I'm sorry for the trouble. Our servers are really struggling. I'd suggest to check back tomorrow morning, we may still have stock available for ordering as we have been able to increase our available quantity.

      • Jay
  • any tips from anyone on best combination to get an order through? I've tried both paypal and credit card (for the past 1hr) with zero success. It keeps timing out.

    • Generally CC has had better luck. Perhaps try a little later, but we are seeing plenty of orders going through at the moment. I'm very sorry for the experience though, we really did not expect this level of response.

      • Jay
  • is this suitable for general cleaning? glass, bench top etc

    • I can't say I'm an expert in cleaning. It does contain hydrogen peroxide and proplyene glycol which may affect some surfaces and this has been formulated by the TGA as a skin product. I hope this helps.

      • Jay
    • Propylene glycol will leave a wierd sticky film on the surface.

  • +1

    Please limit purchase, for fairness for all.

    • Thanks for the suggestion. The vast majority of people have been very reasonable with quantities, ordering 1-4 units. We still do have stock available and will keep reviewing this.

      • Jay
  • Are you going to be able to manufacture fast enough for two weeks despatch?

    • At this stage yes we should be good. I'll update the post if anything changes for any new orders being placed.

      • Jay
  • Oh no I actually got to checkout and paid and then see I have 2 orders….. "Sigh" orders no. 109533488 and 109533211. Have no idea what's been paid for.

    • +1

      Ah sorry, that would be our server. Would you mind shooting through a PM so our CS team can sort this out for you? Just include your email there too. Thanks!

      • Jay
  • Thanks I ordered one. Paid with PayPal no issue just slow

    • Great thanks for the order!

      • Jay
  • Thank you! Order placed, took maybe 40min for it to load but I got there in the end!

    • Wow 40 minutes, must be a record :) Thanks so much for your patience and understanding while our servers chug along!! So sorry for the poor website experience.

      • Jay

    Now that orders are going through, maybe change status of the bargain to Out of Stock once the limit is reached, to save on processing further orders and the hassle of refunds etc. Also, it will reduce load on your server for people purchasing your other items.

    Just a suggestion.

    • Thanks, we'll definitely do this. We do still have stock available with our current raw materials, but will change this to out of stock when the limit hits. Thanks for the suggestion!

      • Jay
  • Hi Jay,

    My order went through. Received the email. Thanks. Only issue is that it is showing blank in shipping information and in the Grand Total on Invoice i cannot see Shipping Cost, but when i paid it was showing the shipping cost added to the total. Would you be able to check it?
    Thanks.

    • Sure would you mind shooting through a PM? Our team will be able to check this for you, just send over your order number and email for reference. Just a heads up, they are quite behind so there will be a delay in getting back to you.

      • Jay
  • Finally…… after 1-hour struggle got the order confirmation…. the website is super slow but still accepting orders. Thanks, OP

    btw guys do not try PayPal, I was redirected to the home page when I tried paying with PayPal

      Thanks for the order randomrandom! Really appreciate the persistence and patience with our servers.

    Ordered, thank you for this deal. I have a baby due in 3 weeks so this is vital.

    • +1

      Oh congrats, how exciting! Thanks so much for the order and it's our pleasure!

      • Jay
    • +1

      big happiness in a little package, definitely I am talking about the baby lol. Best wishes mate, its a good news in all the mess happening in the world.

    • +1

      How is this vital? You going to bath them in it haha?

      • Newborns have essentially no immune system so before visitors touch our baby they will need to wash their hands or use a hand sanitiser.

        Even without COVID happening if i went in to the office or met friends in a park everyone would need to be using it.

  • +2

    Finally a sanitiser deal thats is not price gouging. Ethanol is not rocket science. Considering your e10 petrol is $1 a litre now you literally buy 1 liter of ethanol and 9 liters petrol for $10.

    • Thanks for the support pao2x, really appreciate it!

      • Jay
  • My order just went through, be patient

    • +1

      Thanks for the order!!

      • Jay
    • Did you refresh? Shipping method, payments method, and order review have been loading…

  • Well that took forever but order went through

    • Really appreciate your patience cyrax83. And thanks for the order!

      • Jay
  • Got through and ordered 2 after 1 hour of waiting. Thanks!

    • 1hour lol took me 5 hours…..

    • Thanks for the order it's most appreciated!

      • Jay
  • Finally got through. Hopefully I don’t get an oos notification 🤣

    • Thanks! Yep all good any order that went through we will be able to fulfil.

      • Jay
  • How long will it take to deliver to CDB WA?

    • WA shipping times are delayed now with both our carriers (Auspost and Fastway). From the date of dispatch (1-2 weeks), expect at least a 5 day delivery time period.ETA's are in checkout.

    Thanks OP, took two attempts but managed to place an order via Afterpay.

    You are one of only two suppliers (that I know of) who’s formula includes 80% ethanol. The other being Manly Spirits, but they’ve sold out.

    Other distillery’s I’ve looked at include less than 80% ethanol in their formulation.

    Kudos on listening to feedback and upping the percentage of alcohol.

    • Thanks for the order and the feedback emoticon!!

      • Jay

    Is the Referral system working ? redirects to site home page for me

    • +2

      I had the same issue. It never applied the $10 for the referre for me when I tried it.

    • ditto.

    • Didn't work for me. Looks like it only allows one discount.

    • It should but the referral discount won't stack with this code. If the issue persists I'll have someone look into this.

      • Jay
  • Like others here, after an hour of struggling finally placed an order.

    Thanks for organising sanitiser in this time of need.

    • Thanks for the order and patience!!

      • Jay
  • I would like to order 4L, just checking is it ok to store it for 6-9 months?

    • +1

      Google says 2-3 years after manufacture date. Mostly due to the alcohol evaporating reducing its content/effectiveness.

      Hopefully the bottle is sealed well.

    • +1

      Yes this would be fine so long as it's in a cool dry place.

      • Jay
  • Finally after an hour, managed to order 2, thanks OP.

    • Thanks for the order!!

      • Jay
  • Ordered enough for free shipping. I'm in Brisbane and my family runs a restaurant so hopefully arrives soon…

    • Thanks for the order!! Really appreciate it!

    Well done Jay.
    Website was a bit slow to get through but I’ve bought from you guys so many times and can attest to the great customer service you guys provide, so always happy to try and business like yourself.

    Big props to you guys upping to percentage to 80% to meet the recommendation of WHO. Great job mate.

    • Thanks for the feedback and support!! Really appreciate it and sorry for the website speed, it was horrible!

      • Jay
  • The shipping and payment fields are greyed out and 'loading' - how long did this take most people to load?

    • +2

      For me it was around two minutes, after having close the tab/browser and re-doing the process.

      Try clicking on different payment types, that might also speed up the loading.

      • +1

        Thanks - clicked around a few things and it picked up. strange!

        • Yup, no worries. I was waiting awhile as well on my first attempt, got impatient and started clicking around and voila but got a payment error so had to do it again.

      • +1

        clicking on different payments works

  • Well done guys. Haven't bought supplements in over 12 months. Will return to Amino Z post Covid!

    • Thanks for the support! And yep let's hope post-covid is not too long away.

    Finally managed to purchase 4. However no free shipping eventhough I added the promo code. Charged me $103.97.

    • Just ordered 4, went to view cart, enter code, apply, says $79.80 then check out.
      I checked out before (haven't paid yet) and I entered code below where it says "enter code at cart" then I realized I put it in the comment section not in the cart.
      Paid by Paypal no issues, no delay everything was sweet =D
      Got CashRewards as well ++

    • When you added the code, it should’ve also said free shipping on the same page, next to the discount amount and the button to continue.

      You should’ve seen the free shipping confirmation “before” you move to the page where you enter your shipping and payment details and pay.

    • Yep… Just realised that I added the code in the comments without realising, on my phone and I was also getting impatient. My fault.

      • +1

        Ooh unlucky, and you’ve paid? Pm the OP/rep here, I’m sure he will be able to refund the difference. I’ve read a lot of comments here praising their customer service.

        • Yeah, I paid by credit card as that was the recommended payment method. I have sent them an email, so see what happens. I'm sure they are extremely busy now, being inundated with OzB purchases.

    • +2

      Did you apply the code? Anyway if there's an issue please send through a PM or email and I'll have the team look after you. Don't worry if you've been overcharged we'll issue a refund. We're just a bit behind on messages so please allow for a bit of a delay.

      • Jay
  • I've managed to get through and pay via paypal. I got an email stating the invoice tax number. Does that mean I am one of the chosen few who will receive said nectar?

    • +1

      Yup we are a part of the chosen. The invoice email should also have the order number so I think we’re good.

      • +4

        I've never felt so accepted in my life.

  • Thanks ordered a couple for work. Slow to load but got there in the end. Ended up using zip for payment because that loaded fine.
    Keep up the great deal and hope you get heaps of support to come out the other side of this in good shape.

    • Thanks for the order and the support! Glad you managed to get an order through.

      • Jay
  • Thanks placed an order for 4 cans with spray bottles.

    • Great thanks for the order!

      • Jay

    Reminder for those with the AMEX offer, use Paypal for the spend $20 get $5 back cashback offer.

  • +2

    Received email saying it's in back order now

    • When did you order?

      • About 6pm

        • Hope it won't take long to fulfill back orders.. I'm expecting just over a month wait given AP being hammered atm. OP can you give us all an idea when they'll be dispatched?

      • +1

        Thank you for your order from us (order xxxxx).
        I'm just confirming that you were aware that part of your order is being delivered to us from our suppliers and therefore may not be sent within 24 hours.
        Here's a breakdown of your order at the moment:
        Out of stock:

        Amino Z Hand Sanitiser 1L (We have 0 available. We estimate that the remaining stock will arrive in our warehouse Within a week)

        If you would like us to modify your order by sending arranging a product upgrade, please let me know so we can avoid any unnecessary delays.
        You can just reply to me on this email, or give us a call on 1300 AMINO Z (1300 264 669).

    • +2

      Just an FYI to avoid any confusion, all of these are on backorder because we haven't yet bottled up the product. We're estimating to get through all of them within 1-2 weeks and will commence production at the end of this week.

      • Jay
      • +2

        Might also want to update the product sticker before printing with the new formula to say 80% alcohol instead of the original 70/75%.

        • Oh yes we will - stickers haven't printed yet and this will be done. Thanks for the note.
