GEHWOL HISTORY
ALL GEHWOL NATURAL FOOT AND LEG CARE PRODUCTS ARE
EXTREMELY EFFECTIVE AND WELL TOLERATED.
|
In 1868 in Lübbecke in the
Westphalia region of Germany, the pharmacist Eduard Gerlach took over
his father's colonial goods store and expanded it with a drugstore.
With his drugstore which was the first of its kind in the war zone at
that time, Eduard Gerlach laid the foundation for a prospering family
business, which, with the brand name Gehwol, has obtained international
recognition and has become a synonym for foot-care.

Gelach is rightly so considered to be a
pioneer of modern foot-care, due to the fact that he developed the
first industrially manufactured cream for the prevention and
alleviation of foot ailments. As a soldier he was able to find out for
himself how unbearably painful sore feet can be. As a pharmacist he was
able to successfully mix fundamental substances such as potassium
carbonate, unsaturated fatty acids, mineral-based lubricants and
disinfecting essential oils in such a way that he was able to market
"E.Gerlach's Preservative Cream" in 1882. His brand quickly found a
ready market.
Thanks to the unique
properties of his special cream and his industrial method of
production, E. Gerlach was the first person that was able to
successfully manufacture foot care products in large quantities at low
prices and always with consistent quality. Primarly due to this fact
foot care became affordable for a large portion of the general public
and thus the prerequisites for the creation of a general foot care
consciousness were laid down. A new era of foot care began. Eduard
Gerlach received numerous international honours for his "Preservative
cream"
