Swiss tradition since 1930

Our history

1923

Our history begins in 1923 when young Ulrich Jüstrich emigrates to Argentina, where he sells brushes door to door.

1930

Ulrich returned to Switzerland in 1930, and started a new company in his father's old embroidery factory, creating work for the local people.

1940

It was in 1940 that the fundamental vision of the company was established. Robert Gély, a chemist who loved nature and knew the flora of the Swiss Alps, began to develop the first products derived from natural raw materials.

1941

After a year carrying out multiple investigations in order to use only natural raw materials, JUST begins to produce the first products for personal care.

Its formulation inspires us even today: plant experience at the service of incomparable quality and efficiency in each product we manufacture.

1948

By 1948, the JUST advisers symbolize quality products brought from the Walzenhausen region. The sale of JUST products has become a prestigious professional activity in Switzerland.
The first slogan is born: "Was JUST bringt ist gut!" (What JUST brings is good!) that will characterize the company for many years.
