Braun Silk-épil 7

Braun is a world-renowned German consumer products company, particularly famous for its precision engineering and industrial design. The Silk-épil 7 series is one of their flagship personal care products, designed for long-lasting hair removal. Founded in 1921 by Max Braun in Frankfurt, the company initially focused on radio components and record players before expanding into appliances and grooming tools.

While the brand has its roots deep in German engineering heritage, it has undergone several ownership changes. In 1967, Gillette acquired a majority stake in Braun. Later, when Procter & Gamble (P&G) acquired Gillette in 2005, Braun became a wholly owned subsidiary of P&G.

Today, Braun's product manufacturing remains rooted in Germany for many of its premium personal care items, although global supply chains mean components and certain lines are assembled in various international facilities. The brand remains a symbol of German technical excellence under the global stewardship of the American multinational P&G.
