At the collection point, the mountain pine branches are shredded and then transported to the company's own distillery, which has been in continuous operation since 1958. There, they are distilled in large stills using the time-tested steam distillation method. After approximately six hours of distillation, the essential oil is extracted from the plant material and separated from the condensate. The oil is then carefully filtered and bottled for sale. The plant residues generated during processing are sustainably reused to heat the stills – a resource-conserving cycle in harmony with nature.
