At Wilhelmina, we like to contribute to a better world. That’s why we make more and more of products, like our single packs, with sustainable packaging. This way, we can reduce plastic with 14,512 kg per year! And we put these single packs in a cardboard dispenser, which comes down to an additional 8,282 kg per year. That’s 22,794 kg less plastic every 12 months! Furthermore, the new paper packaging will decompose in nature, if some happens to fall out of your pocket by accident. Which is a relief.

For all ages
Wilhelmina peppermint was developed in 1892 by the company Fortuin. The occasion? It was the 50th anniversary of the company, and at the same time it was an extra special tribute to Queen Wilhelmina, who was 12 years old at the time. The peppermints were such a success that we have been purveyor to the royal household ever since, and that’s something we’re very proud of. By now our other refreshing products, such as sugar hearts with text and Salmiak pastilles, have also become true staples. They are of premium quality and often vegan, and usually they come with sustainable packaging. Wilhelmina is more than just peppermint.
