Hygiena is a traditional, family-owned company from Belgium. It distributes natural and organic food, cosmetic and household products.
The company, founded in 1955 by Luc Muyldermans and Simonne De Pelsmaeker, started out with the home delivery of natural food products. Subsequently, it opened a small store specialized in the sale of natural and dietetic food products.

Quality, a core value at Hygiena
Product quality is a core value for this family-owned company. It has therefore chosen to distribute brands that share similar values and it privileges natural, organic, healthful, and ecological products. Some product lines are also available in bulk, with a view to reducing packaging.
By offering these brands in organic and zero waste stores in Belgium, Hygiena remains true to its commitment to nature. For instance, by offering product lines made with 100% organically grown ingredients, the company ensures that farming methods are respectful of nature and wildlife. This is also a guarantee that consumers are getting healthful products.
In privileging natural and organic products, Hygiena ensures that the ingredients they contain are grown following methods that respect nature and biodiversity. For example, some of our products feature the following labels: AB, Vegan, Vegetarian, Fairtrade, Ecocert, Ecogarantie, Cosmébio and of course the EU organic label.
This Belgian retailer promotes local consumption and ensures its partner brands and stores share its environmental concerns.
Hygiena distributes nearly 100 brands and more than 2,600 food and cosmetic products. The company is committed to offering innovative product lines that respond to customer needs and are made from natural ingredients.
This long-standing commitment has made the company a leader and a key partner in the Belgian organic distributor and wholesaler market.
Hygiena joined Compagnie Léa Nature in 2017. This partnership has allowed us to distribute new high-quality organic brands in Belgium.
The company’s distribution center in Sint-Niklaas covers 8,000 square meters and exports the following brands, amongst others:
