About VOLUPROPOL™ — Propolis-Powered Natural Care, Backed by Science

Who We Are

VOLUPROPOL™ (German TM registration #3020252320993) is a premium natural-care brand by The European Hair Factory Inc. (TEHFI) and HEADS by volu-med™ (Schöne Haare GmbH, Germany).

Developed in the Philippines and refined to European cosmetic standards, we bridge nature, science, and craftsmanship to offer an advanced line of propolis-based scalp, hair, skin, and nail care products.

Sustainably sourced from the Philippine rainforest near the Mayon Volcano, our propolis extract from native stingless bees (Tetragonula) is rich in bioactive polyphenols, flavonoids, and CAPE, providing proven antimicrobial, antioxidant, and scalp-balancing properties. VOLUPROPOL™ combines traditional bee wisdom with scientific formulation—a synergy of Philippine nature and European innovation.

From the Philippine Rain Forest to your routine.

We standardize propolis from the Philippine rainforest and craft VOLUPROPOL™ in small batches, delivering it through clinic-grade rituals (in-salon microneedling) and at-home care.

It’s luxury natural science, built on generations of Filipino beekeeping knowledge and refined for modern confidence.
