Styrian delight, only the best—that’s Steirerkraft
Steirerkraft stands for premium-quality Styrian food products—from Styrian pumpkin seed oil (PGI), the most award-winning in the world, to Käferbohnen (PDO) and pumpkin seeds. Rooted in Styria, at home all over the world.
Our Philosophy
Quality is our top priority
At Steirerkraft, traditional farming and modern processing go hand in hand. Strict quality controls throughout the entire value chain—from cultivation in Styria to bottling in Wollsdorf—ensure the taste and quality of every product. You can really taste the care that goes into it.
Development You Can Feel
That's where
the
Steirerkraft comes from
The Steirerkraft premium brand is characterized by its deep roots in the region and a strong sense of responsibility toward our farmers and the region. Our commitment to producing honest and delicious foods for a balanced, regional diet drives us every day—and has allowed us to grow from a coalition of 180 Styrian farmers into the market leader in the pumpkin seed oil sector.
Two Seals, One Promise
A source that can be verified
Some origins are just claims. Ours is protected.
Our pumpkin seed oil bears the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI), and our scarlet runner beans bear the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) – both tied to a specific region of origin and strict quality criteria.
For you, that means: whenever you see the Steirerkraft label, you can trust the origin.
Basic Premium
Unique in Design
The project began with a design competition at FH Joanneum in Graz. Under the guidance of Mag. Susanne Lippitsch, students developed creative and professional concepts for presenting Styrian pumpkin seed oil PGI.
Afterward, we spent a long time tinkering, deliberating, calculating, and testing; we discarded ideas and came up with new ones. With the help of national and international experts, we finally achieved our goal: the premium bottle for our Steirerkraft pumpkin seed oil PGI.
Our Gourmet Portfolio
True enjoyment, all in one place
With care and love, we produce food of the highest quality. The Styrian way of life, diversity, and authentic enjoyment are embodied in every Steirerkraft product. Our product range extends from Styrian pumpkin seed oil (PGI) to pumpkin seeds in many varieties and Käferbohnen (PDO) to apple chips, vinegars, and polenta.
