The marigold
From Egypt to your hands: Our journey to the world's best marigolds.
We recently visited sunny Egypt, a country known not only for its majestic pyramids and the Nile, but also for its first-class cultivation of marigolds. The sandy, well-drained soil provides ideal conditions for this wonderful plant, which is in full bloom from March to May.
Our on-site visits allow us to personally ensure the high quality and reliability of our raw material sourcing. Direct contact with our local farmers and close monitoring of the entire cultivation and harvesting process ensure that only the finest ray florets and flower heads with calyx reach our customers.
Calendula flowers are rich in flavonoids, essential oils, and sesquiterpenes, which give them their remarkable antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and wound-healing properties. These active ingredients make them an indispensable component of tea blends, ointments, and various drugstore products.
Our continuous on-site presence and commitment to quality assurance guarantee a reliable supply chain that consistently provides our customers with the best raw materials. With dedication and care, we bring nature and its precious resources directly to you. And we've been doing so for over 100 years.
