200,000 New Team Members at Our Linz Site

On May 2, 2023, around 200,000 rather unusual “team members” arrived at the Silhouette Group: Ten honey bee colonies moved into hives on the green space surrounding our headquarters in Linz. The hives were positioned and oriented to allow the bees to set out on their foraging flights.

From Flower to Honey Jar
During the warmer months, honey bees collect nectar and pollen in the area surrounding their hives. As they forage, they transfer pollen from flower to flower, playing an important role in plant pollination.
Honey yields from the ten colonies vary depending on conditions and the season. In a good year, a total of between 200 and 400 kilograms of honey can be harvested.

After harvesting, the honey is filled into 330-gram jars and sold to Silhouette Group employees. The honey is certified organic.
