“We have always been committed to sustainability. Because there is no alternative.” Andreas Wilfinger, CEO of beauty brand RINGANA said. The skincare products from the Austrian company RINGANA are natural, vegan, ethical, eco-friendly, and free of animal testing. They have a great range of travel-sized items to suit all skin types.

The three RINGANA Values, FRESH, EXCELLENT, and TRENDSETTING define the brand. Developers are skilled in using the strongest plant essences available thanks to the novel RINGANA approach, which permits the utilisation of very perishable secondary plant materials. Because of this, none of the ingredients in the products are genetically engineered or contain artificially preservatives.

“It all started over 25 years ago with a tube of toothpaste brought home from kindergarten by the son of the founders, Andreas Wilfinger and Ulla Wannemacher. Shocked by its many questionable ingredients that they didn’t want their son to be exposed to, and seeing that most skin care products contained questionable ingredients as well, they realised that something had to change. That was the moment when a visionary business idea was born: fresh and effective skin care, manufactured entirely without unnecessary ingredients. It was the start of an Austrian success story.”

Today sustainability remains central to RINGANA’s ethos: “By using biodegradable corn starch packing peanuts as the fill material for our packages, we reduce our plastic consumption by 75.5 tons per year (*as at 2019). In addition, our shipping cartons are made entirely of recycled material.”

In addition to being sustainable and resource-efficient, the brand strategy prioritises treating all of partners fairly, from raw material acquisition to sales. The new skin care products and vitamins are very effective. The open-plan, bright and sustainable design of the brand’s new headquarters makes it highly attractive to new joiners. A conscious decision was made to build the new premises in the home region and, naturally enough, climate-friendly construction and integration into nature were top priorities.

Thanks for the products.
