The story

From desert tree to men's grooming

The story of neemen begins not in a cosmetics laboratory but in the desert. Since 2012, Dr Klaus-Peter Radtke has been reforesting parts of Mauritania with the hardy neem tree, initially as a non-profit reforestation project.

The neem tree is a true survivor: it needs little water and thrives even in hot, dry conditions. Its leaves, seeds and bark hold numerous bioactive plant substances. From this observation came the idea of combining nature conservation with skincare.

In 2019, Katharina Jahrling, who comes from the cosmetics industry, founded the brand neemen in Hamburg together with the team, an uncomplicated, natural care line for men based on neem.

The Treemune system

Three components from nature

The name Treemune combines Tree and immune. According to the brand, the system is designed to carry the neem tree's resilience over to the skin. It rests on three building blocks.

Neem extract

The core: extract from the neem tree, long valued in India and parts of Africa. According to the brand, it forms the basis of every product.

Prebiotics

Skin-balancing prebiotics complement the neem extract. According to the brand, they are meant to support a balanced skin feel.

Extremophile plants

Hardy plants from extreme habitats, such as the resurrection plant, round off the system and, according to the brand, bring additional active ingredients.
