The moor area is divided into 16 fields, from which 3,000 to 4,000 cubic meters of moor can be extracted per year. Only one field is used at a time. Only after 15 years is the moor cut again in a depleted field. The peat used in the therapy is returned to its place of origin after treatment. This moor recycling requires long rest periods so that the moor can recover.
The valuable remedy is processed at the Meinberg mine. Here, a crushing and straining process is used to produce the fine-fibered, gentle moor mash that is used in the therapy.
