Materials

There are also many options when it comes to materials. In addition to woods such as olive, oak, ash and thermally modified timber (TMT), composite materials are an important alternative employed across various areas of application. Our range of bristles can meet every need and comprises various types of boars bristle, horse hair, goat’s hair and mane hair, in addition to premium wooden pins and metal pins in different alloys and even gilded 24 carat gold.

Our bristle pads are for the most part produced using materials from nature. Pleasantly soft for sensitive areas of use or firm where required.

 

Finishing

It is not only the individual design but also an individual finish that makes your products into something special. Oils and lacquers based on natural materials give a beautiful finish while at the same time ensuring that the wood retains its original character and is protected against environmental factors.

State-of-the-art techniques such as laser cutting or wood printing processes together with pad printing and hot stamping give our products their personal and individual touch.

Our claim –
Philosophy & mission

Crafting brushes has been our passion since 1827. Our grandparents and great-grandparents learnt the craft. Since then it has been passed on and developed further from generation to generation.

Our love for our home, the Black Forest, forms the basis of all we do. Nature and our staff are our greatest treasure and need to be protected. In accordance with our company philosophy we prefer natural materials.

As it was 190 years ago, “Made in the Black Forest” will continue to be a guarantee of high-quality natural brushes in the future. Identifying customer wishes and fulfilling them are just as important to us as securing long-term jobs and conserving our environment.

Our vision is to develop our craft further and to remain competitive in order to pass it on to the upcoming generations with love! Just as it has been for more than 5 generations.

Quality management

OUR PROMISE:
The principles of care for the environment, local sourcing
and the highest quality govern the manufacture of our products.

For us as makers of natural products the responsible handling of natural resources is one of the key aspects of what we do. For Faller, sustainability is a fundamental principle that goes without saying. We regard ourselves as having a permanent ecological, economic and social responsibility towards our customers, suppliers and staff as well as the region.

For this reason, we have for many years been careful to deploy resources and materials as consciously and sparingly as possible. As an FSC®-certified company we support an environmentally friendly, socially sustainable and economically viable use of our earth's forests.

Since 2014 Bürstenfabrik Faller GmbH has been IFS-certified (International Featured Standard). This certification ensures the safety and quality of household and body care products. Our products are made using state-of-the-art machinery and traditional hand-drawing of brushes, the so-called front-end hand-drawing process. A sustainable and ecological way of doing business is enshrined in our company guidelines. We regard it as a principle that needs no explanation. Nevertheless, we see it as our entrepreneurial duty and responsibility to continue improving these guidelines to protect the environment now and in the future.

How to Care for your brush

In order for you to enjoy your hair brush for a long time to come, we recommend that you clean it and care for it regularly.

First, free your brush from loose hair and dandruff using a brush cleaner. After that, the brush should be washed in lukewarm water to which a touch of shampoo has been added. To this end, dip only the bristles in water and move the brush back and forth.

Please take care to ensure that the brush body does not get too wet.

After this, rinse the brush well in clear water and then place it on a cloth, for example. For drying. The bristles should paint down during the drying process. Never leave a brush to dry near a radiator – normal room temperature is ideal.

Proper handling of all brushes prolongs their life.

Hair type & use

Without background knowledge it isn’t quite so easy to find the right brush for your particular type of hair and the use you have in mind.

This is why we have developed a colour coding system for our brushes linked to use and hair type, which is clearly visible on the packaging and will help you find the right brush.

Within the following categories

you will find different types of bristles to match your intended use.

Take a look at our how to use videos.

Natural bristles

Boarbristles/Natural bristles are very similar to human hair and are therefore able to spread the natural oils from spots where there is too much oil to spots which are dry or damaged. You will already see a natural gloss in your hair while still brushing. Another important characteristic of this bristle is, that it can prevent split ends.

Important: Brush your hair also against the growth direction. Lean your upper body forward and start to brush slowly from your neck-hairline to the end of your hair in one stroke. Afterwards follow the brush stroke with your free hand and smooth your hair. One thing will be noticeable immediately: your hair will look voluminous and shinier than before.

Wooden pins

Long wooden pins are especially suitable for caring about long hair. The rounded pins stimulate the skin on your scalp, which helps the blood circulation in your scalp too. The wooden pins are additionally anti-static and your hair can therefore not be electrostatically charged. Wooden pins, compared to metal pins, do not absorb a lot of heat when blow-drying your hair. It is specifically good for sensitive scalps. Strong curls can easily be tamed with wooden pins.

Synthetic fibre

Cleans rough dust and dirt. Especially suitable for brushing wet hair, as well as styling your hair. (Due to sliding smoother through your hair compared to natural bristles, more suitable for long hair)

Metal pins

Especially suitable for wet hair, as well as styling. Ball tips at the end of the pins give your scalp a pleasant feeling when brushing. Also very suitable to untie messy hair. Great for long and strong hair.

Bristles + Pins

Special fine bristle-bundles in combination with rounded pins give an extremely pleasant feeling when brushing or styling your hair. At the same time, the scalp will be massaged. Due to an elastic and strong rubber cushion, brushing feels extremely pleasant and gentle. Suitable for strong as well as fine/thin hair. Perfectly manufactured rubber cushions and wooden pins are the reason that it does not rip out any hair.
