The roots of SAINT CHARLES can be found in the historic pharmacy, which to this day remains the backbone of the Viennese brand. The company is run by Alexander Ehrmann, 6th generation pharmacist, and Richard König. SAINT CHARLES relies on the healing power of local nature and combines this knowledge with a modern lifestyle. The products are carefully formulated from natural ingredients and are sourced as far as possible from regional and sustainable cultivation. Based on the philosophy of Traditional European Medicine, the brand offers an exceptional, holistic concept for face and body care. It is bottled primarily in amber glass bottles, or in recycled plastic; no outer packaging is used at all.
Born out of a passion for reinterpreting old knowledge in a new way, pharmacist Alexander Ehrmann took over the historical pharmacy from 1886 in Vienna and founded the Saint Charles brand. Based on the teachings of traditional European medicine, the company relies on the healing power of nature and the local herbal world.

NATURAL FORMULATIONS
Saint Charles products in the categories of natural cosmetics, aromatherapy and herbal medicine are often made from 100 percent natural raw materials in organic quality or wild-collected. Local partners are preferred in the selection of ingredients. Thus, the ingredients for the formulas are sourced from many small producers and growers in Austria and neighboring countries.
About
SAINT CHARLES Apothecary
ECOLOGICAL. SUSTAINABLE. FAIR.
These three buzzwords describe the claim that the Saint Charles brand sets itself every day. Sustainability, the protection of the environment and fair business practices have been a concern for
the pharmacy brand since its founding in Vienna in 2006. The Saint Charles family is committed to a number of issues. In doing so, the brand sees itself not only as an economic company, but as a part of society that also makes a contribution outside of monetary aspects.
