Our production is the core piece of our company.

Sustainability and responsible consumption reflect the spirit of the times and are much more than a short-term trend. We continue to produce a large portion of our products in our factories in Germany, Portugal and Hungary.

Our history – we practise tradition and sustainability

In 1928, the company was founded by Franz Mey as a commission hosiery factory. From this point onwards, we continued to develop. From a women’s underwear specialist to the integration of men’s underwear, all the way to lingerie production in 2007. Today, we manufacture high-quality underwear, beautiful lingerie and comfortable loungewear for women and men.
