Weleda Skin Food

Weleda Skin Food is a world-renowned natural moisturizer, a flagship product of the Weleda brand which was established in 1921. The brand was founded in Switzerland by the Austrian philosopher Rudolf Steiner, the Dutch physician Ita Wegman, and the German chemist Oskar Schmiedel. Rooted in the principles of anthroposophy and biodynamic agriculture, the brand emphasizes the use of natural ingredients and holistic harmony.

Manufacturing of Weleda products primarily takes place at three major European sites: Schwäbisch Gmünd in Germany, Huningue in France, and Arlesheim in Switzerland. The company is unique in its ownership structure, remaining independent and mission-driven rather than purely profit-focused. It is majority-owned by two non-profit foundations: the General Anthroposophical Society and the Arlesheim Clinic. This ensures that the company maintains its commitment to sustainable and ethical practices as a certified B Corporation.
