Styrian State Award 2022

14 gold medals for Estyria pumpkin seed oils

All fourteen of the Styrian PGI pumpkin seed oils we submitted for the 2022 State Award were awarded prizes – and are authorised to bear the gold badge.

New regulations for trademarks

When using the gold badge, brands must now also name Estyria Naturprodukte GmbH on the label as the oil mill. Before now, it was not necessary to name Estyria as manufacturer when using the badge.

Traditional Styrian
stamp press process

While modernity has brought progress in many areas, the traditional Styrian stamp press process is still the best way of making pumpkin seed oil.
