MÜHLE TRADITIONAL R89 Double Edge Safety Razor for Men
Category: merkur safety razor
In 1945, Otto Johannes Müller founded the MÜHLE business after returning from the war. He crafted the first shaving brushes and designed the iconic MÜHLE signet. Over the subsequent decades, the company evolved and faced various challenges, but remained dedicated to producing high-quality shaving products.
In 1965, Hans-Jürgen Müller took over the growing company, which had expanded to 40 employees and was exporting to 36 countries. However, in 1972, under pressure from the German Democratic Republic, he was forced to sell the business, and MÜHLE became a state-owned enterprise.
After rebranding in 1987, the company focused solely on manufacturing brushes for the state. Hans-Jürgen Müller then became a self-employed brush maker. This marked a new chapter, as in 1990, the reunification of Germany allowed him to regain the family business, which he traded as Hans-Jürgen Müller KG, retaining the iconic MÜHLE signet.
The 1990s proved challenging, as MÜHLE struggled to survive after reunification. Gradually, the company won new customers and rehired former employees, celebrating its 50th anniversary in 1995. The new millennium ushered in a period of growth, as the company expanded its offering to a full range of wet shaving goods, and the MÜHLE brand gained prominence.
Today, MÜHLE continues to design, develop, and manufacture the finest quality shaving products from its family-owned premises in historic Saxony, northern Germany. For over 75 years, a skilled workforce has handcrafted the company's razors, brushes, and accessories, which are used by shaving enthusiasts worldwide.
MÜHLE's product range includes the TRADITIONAL safety razor, featuring a closed-comb design that provides a close yet mild wet shave. This premium product is made to last, with a corrosion-resistant, long-lasting construction. The safety razor is a preferred choice for those seeking the closest, smoothest shave, as the blades exfoliate the skin and minimize razor irritation, while offering a cost-effective, plastic-free shaving solution.
Complementing the razors, MÜHLE's shaving brushes are the centerpiece of the wet shaving experience. Crafted in a wide range of ergonomic handles and featuring both natural badger hair and synthetic fibers, these brushes work the lather into the skin and prepare the beard for a comfortable shave.
To ensure the longevity of these shaving tools, MÜHLE offers a range of stylish chrome-plated shaving stands, allowing users to properly rinse and dry their razors and brushes after each use.
MÜHLE's commitment to sustainability is evident in its membership in the Environmental Alliance of Saxony and its use of eco-friendly, plastic-free materials. The company's design and manufacturing processes are driven by an affinity with nature and a desire for the highest quality, reflecting its expert know-how and pioneering spirit.
