ALPA: From the Czech Republic to the World

Some brands are so woven into Czech life that nearly every household keeps a bottle on hand. ALPA is one of them — and today its products travel from the Czech Republic to customers all over the world.

Francovka: the flagship since 1913

ALPA's flagship product is the iconic Francovka, an herbal alcohol-based tincture. The brand supplies over 5 million bottles of it to the market every year. Francovka under the ALPA name was first introduced in 1913 — the same year the ALPA trademark was registered.

The company still produces Francovka according to the original recipe, and it remains known for both its quality and its distinctive packaging. Francovka ALPA is intended mainly for external use: rubbing into the skin, massages, as an additive to full or foot baths, and as a compress. Traditionally it has also been used as a gargle and a mild disinfectant.

Far more than one tincture

The ALPA portfolio counts around 140 products across massage preparations, children's care, and body and skin cosmetics. The best-known lines include LESANA, AMICA, AVIRIL, BATOLE, PEDIK, LUNA, WINDSOR, REPELENT, and the newer RELAXEL — plus popular variants like the cannabis Francovka.
