Nordic Shaving Co

Nordic Shaving Company is a family-run Finnish grooming brand based in Tampere, founded in 2013 and known for traditional wet-shaving supplies, beard care, and skincare. Its Peat & Tar Soap is handcrafted in Finland from domestic peat, which it markets as lifting impurities and oiliness from skin, paired with pine tar for its soothing effect. The brand positions the bar as biodegradable, vegan, and free of artificial preservatives, fragrances, or dyes.

Nordic Shaving Co is a Finland brand built around whole peat and tar.

Peat from Finland is mainly sphagnum peat (raised bog) and carex peat (fen). Peat — the organic sediment itself — is used in treatments like peat balneotherapy, peat body wraps, and peat mud pack, most often explored for psoriasis, back pain (chronic low back pain), joint inflammation (osteoarthritis, rheumatic conditions), and eczema (atopic dermatitis).
