Herb Centre

You have never set foot in a building like this before: The Ricola Herb Centre is mainly made of loam. Yes, loam. But why? Learn more about this world-renowned building. Best by booking a tour.

Small drops, big plans

Together with architects Herzog & de Meuron, we wanted to set new standards in sustainable industrial architecture. At the same time, we wanted the best storage and processing facilities for our precious Alpine herbs. This is how the idea of the loam building was born.
