Sustainable Shaving: MÜHLE's Journey Towards Gender-Inclusive Design

MÜHLE's story began in 1945 when Otto Johannes Müller founded the business after returning from the war, creating the first shaving brushes and designing the iconic MÜHLE signet. In 1965, Hans-Jürgen Müller took over the company, which had grown to 40 employees and was exporting products to 36 countries.

However, in 1972, under pressure from the German Democratic Republic, Hans-Jürgen Müller was forced to sell the company, and MÜHLE became a state-owned enterprise. This lasted until 1987, when the business was rebranded to manufacture brushes solely for the state, and Hans-Jürgen Müller became a self-employed brush maker.

The tide turned in 1990 when a new Europe emerged, and Hans-Jürgen Müller regained the family business, trading as Hans-Jürgen Müller KG, with the iconic MÜHLE signet intact. The company struggled to survive after reunification, but gradually won new customers and rehired former employees, celebrating its 50th anniversary in 1995.

The dawn of the new millennium brought a boom for MÜHLE, as the company expanded its offering to a full range of wet shaving goods, and the brand came to the forefront. In 2021, MÜHLE launched the first safety razor designed with the needs of all users in mind, regardless of gender, marking a significant milestone in the brand's journey.

MÜHLE's commitment to sustainable and high-quality shaving products is evident in their manufacturing process. Designed and produced in Germany, MÜHLE razors, brushes, and accessories are handcrafted by a skilled workforce, upholding the brand's heritage and pioneering spirit.

Customers can choose from various razor designs, including Gillette Mach3 and Fusion multi-blade cartridges, as well as double-edge safety razors favored by shaving enthusiasts for the closest shave and eco-conscious wet shavers. The shaving brush, the centerpiece of the wet shaving ritual, is available in a range of natural badger hair or synthetic fiber options to suit individual preferences.

To ensure the longevity of their products, MÜHLE offers a range of stylish chrome-plated shaving stands for proper storage and maintenance of razors and brushes. The brand's dedication to sustainability is further reflected in their plastic-free shaving solutions and commitment to working with suppliers who uphold high environmental standards.

MÜHLE's legacy of craftsmanship, innovation, and environmental consciousness continues to inspire shaving enthusiasts around the world, as the brand remains committed to delivering the finest wet shaving experience.
