Sourcing

Maritime pine, also known as «Pine from the Landes», originates from the Mediterranean basin and is iconic to the French Atlantic coast. It covers one million hectares in the South west of France, making it one of the largest forest in Europe. Its medicinal properties were later acknowledged, with the first use of its bark extracts dating back to 1534.
The maritime pine wood industry is not just any ordinary industry, it is a network of committed players who have been working together for decades, in transparency and shared interests.

Groupe Berkem has built its success through long-term and strong partnerships with its customers and producers. Proud of the richness and premium quality of the natural raw material used, the upcycling process allows responsible and circular economy and respect of the ecosystem.

This impressive supply chain enables Groupe Berkem to produce in-house its own Pineol® Premium maritime pine bark extract.

Science

Maritime pine bark extract, concentrated in OPCs, offers a unique profile distinct from other sources like grape seed extract, due to its specific composition and origin. Well-known for their potent antioxidant activity, and ability to scavenge free radicals, OPCs from pine bark help to reduce oxidative stress and support various physiological functions. Clinical studies have shown that pine bark extract contributes to a wide range of health benefits including joints, vascular, cardiovascular, metabolic, brain, skin, and gender-specific health, making it a valuable supplement for overall well-being across the adult lifespan.
