Needles, cones and twigs of the local alpine woods
the basis for our certified organic vegetable oils
Our in-house mountain pine oil distillery is located in the heart of South Tyrol, in Reinswald in the Sarntal Valley. This is where the Eschgfeller family has been distilling valuable essential oils using steam distillation for more than five decades.
Our manufacturing process is based on the unique wild growth of the trees and shrubs that thrive in the pristine mountains of the Sarntal Valley. This is where we find the essential natural raw materials for our high-quality oils, natural hydrolates and precious organic natural cosmetic products.

It‘s worth it
We collect the fine needles, twigs and cones from the local Alpine woods with maximum care. These natural raw materials form the basis of our certified organic plant oils, which promise beneficial care for body and soul.
100% wild plant growth
In the production of our essential oils and natural skin care products, we rely exclusively on wild growth – this way we can guarantee the purity of our products.
