Australian Bodycare

Australian Bodycare are leading suppliers of personal care products based on the highest quality of natural active ingredients and specifically, Tea Tree Oil, used as an essential oil for over 1,000 years.

Founded in 1990 in Odense, Denmark, with a subsidiary in Australia, they have since the beginning forged a close relationship with the University of Western Australia, UWA -one of the driving forces in scientific interest in Tea Tree Oil. They have played an important role in thrie product development and scientific documentation.

Today, the major part of product development is performed in Denmark, but the link with UWA remains important. Their production strictly complies with good manufacturing practice (GMP). Australian Bodycare products are sold in more than 20 countries.

Australian Bodycare recipes originate from the rich landscape of the Australian bush, inspired by the ancient traditions of the Aborigines who discovered the curative effects of using natural ingredients to cleanse and care for the hair and body.

Many skin problems can be related to the same cause, namely an uncontrolled growth of bacteria, fungi or viruses. By reducing and limiting this uncontrolled growth it is possible to reduce the symptoms, maintain a healthy skin and keep the skin's natural balance. Tea Tree Oil is a suitable aid in personal care and hygiene because it reduces and controls the growth of foreign bacteria without destroying the natural skin flora. Therefore skin care products enriched with Tea Tree Oil will maintain the skin's natural balance resulting in a healthy skin.

Inspired by traditional Aboriginal remedies, Australian Bodycare has created a hair and skincare range where every single product is individually designed to nourish and pamper the different areas of your body.
Australian Tea Tree Oil is one of the most exciting essential oils in the world. It is only extracted from the tree called Melaleuca alternifolia, which is indigenous to Australia and only grows in a relatively small area on the Northern Rivers region of N.S.W., Australia.
