About Braun

Braun’s rich heritage of providing consumers with superior products extends back to 1921 when Max Braun opened a shop in Frankfurt producing components for radios. This shop would eventually evolve into Braun as we know it today, a billion dollar brand that prides itself on superbly designed and engineered products of outstanding quality that make consumers’ lives easier, more comfortable and ultimately better.

Braun began production of its first electric shaver in 1950, which combined an oscillating cutter block with an ultra-thin hypo-allergenic steel foil mounted above it. This was truly revolutionary and established the category of electric foil shavers, which Braun continues to lead today.

Braun also strives to find original, creative solutions to genuine consumer needs through products with unique, progressive features and attractive design. Braun’s technologically advanced, distinctive, functional design is always a step ahead of the competition and is known the world over. Braun has received international recognition for its design achievements, and the Museum of Modern Art expanded its collection to include several Braun products as models of exemplary design.
