Manufacturing

Naturally completely natural

Our role model is nature. It guarantees us high-quality raw materials. That's why there's no question for us: everything at puralpina is 100% natural, natural!

Swiss manufacturing

All of our natural products with marmot fat are made in Switzerland. More precisely, in Frutigen, in the Bernese Oberland. There is more to them than just valuable raw materials. A lot of passion, our experience and a long period of development and continuous improvement. Our tried and tested marmot herbal ointments and massage oils are carefully mixed and bottled by hand in our own production.

We use Swiss raw materials wherever possible. The marmot oil and wild fats for our marmot ointments and oils come directly from Swiss hunters without exception. We generate the electricity for the production of the ointments and oils using our own photovoltaic system. If the quality requires it, we find exclusive natural raw materials abroad. For example, high-quality olive oil for the marmot herbal ointment.

Selected and powerful herbs give our marmot ointments a warming or cooling effect and their unmistakable scent. In combination with the right herbs, the marmot oil in our marmot herbal ointments unfolds its full power.

Swiss tradition

Marmot oil is a centuries-old Swiss tradition. In Switzerland, marmot fat has many names: marmot fat, marmot ointment, marmot oil, marmot dirt, murbi dirt or mungga fat are some of them.

For thousands of years, plants and animals in high alpine regions have had to adapt in order to survive. They withstood extremes such as icy cold, snow, ice, strong sunlight and the constantly changing weather. In this way, they developed extraordinary protective mechanisms . Humans also discovered many of these amazing powers and active ingredients for themselves. Alpine folk medicine has used them since the beginning for skin care and to promote vitality and well-being .

Our ancestors' lives were hard. They looked for simple remedies for their muscles and joints in their immediate surroundings. Herbs, minerals and animal products were available to them. And so marmot oil has been a tried and tested home remedy for centuries .

100% pure nature

In 1981 we dedicated ourselves entirely to marmot oil. Our goal was (and is) to make the best possible use of marmot fat - this natural, valuable and powerful raw material. With a lot of passion, patience and development work, our first marmot ointment was created in 1992. And it has proven itself to this day. Our marmot herbal ointments and oils are carefully handcrafted in Frutigen in the idyllic Bernese Oberland . With solar power from our own photovoltaic system. We only use 100% pure marmot oil from Swiss hunts . This means we can be sure that the marmots lived in their natural habitat. Together with selected herbs, oils and fats, we create unique and powerful mixtures for our marmot herbal ointments and massage oils.

Our marmot ointments are purely natural. We do not use any artificial fragrances, preservatives or colorants .
