Noordkroon is a brand originating from Texel, the Netherlands, deeply rooted in the island's sheep farming heritage. The brand was founded by a local sheep-farming family who discovered the skin-healing properties of wool fat (lanolin) while working with their flock. Lanolin is a natural wax secreted by sheep that provides excellent hydration and protection for human skin.

Today, Noordkroon remains a family-owned business, maintaining its headquarters and primary manufacturing focus on the island of Texel. The hand cream shown is a flagship product, celebrated for using organic wool fat. Ownership and production have remained local to ensure the high quality and authentic connection to Dutch agriculture and natural skincare traditions.
