ABOUT GEHWOL

Foot care is our craft.

A STORY THAT STARTS WITH EVERYDAY LIFE

Feet work hard.
Good care should follow.

In 1868, pharmacist Eduard Gerlach took over his family’s business in Lübbecke. He saw how daily work and long hours on their feet affected ordinary people.

That practical concern led to a foot cream in 1882 and, later, the GEHWOL brand. The family company continued to build its knowledge alongside foot-care specialists, bringing professional experience into products for everyday routines.
