Our cold-pressed organic rosehip seed oil originates in Lesotho and South Africa. There, we promote the economic independence of rural communities by maintaining partnerships with collectors who harvest wild rosehips. This activity offers them the opportunity to earn a good salary, which is of great importance for the financial basis of their families.

The fruits of various wild rose species, especially the dog rose (Rosa canina), are harvested in autumn as soon as they have reached full ripeness with a bright red or orange color. The seeds are separated from the flesh using a mechanical process in which the rose hips are cut open and the seeds removed.

The seeds are first carefully cleaned and dried before being processed using a mechanical cold-pressing process. After this gentle extraction process, the oil undergoes extensive filtration to remove natural turbidity and residues. Once the valuable oil has arrived in Germany, it is sent to our company headquarters in Leonberg. In our accredited laboratory, we subject the cold-pressed organic rosehip seed oil to careful quality testing to ensure the best quality for our customers. The entire production process focuses on adhering to ecological and social standards in order to guarantee the quality of the rosehip seed oil and the health of our customers.
