My story
My way
How I made a virtue out of necessity
I have overcome my vicious circle of stress and sweating. But it took me 40 years of suffering from excessive sweating. During that time I tried everything: I took spit-routes from conventional doctors and homeopaths to Filipino healers. I tried deodorants, sage teas and miracle cures, tried chemicals and - nothing helped.
Would an operation help?
That was also out of the question for me. I had heard too much about "compensatory sweating". I knew too well that sweat has an important cooling function. I thought about whether my yearning to "turn it off" was the right thing to do at all. Wasn't it perhaps more about "letting it run", accepting a problem?
That's when it "clicked"!
An idea was born: "let it run"
"Let it run", or "laulas" for short, it cried out inside me!
Suddenly it was clear to me: now I am developing a shirt that will help me - and that should also bring relief to other fellow sufferers.
laulas® was born out of my story of suffering: The functional vest with the alternating pockets for absorbent pads and additional membrane protection. Ten years ago, I gave up my original managerial job and launched laulas®. In the meantime, laulas® helps thousands of sufferers. The laulas® shirts are already worn in over 30 countries. My fellow entrepreneurs and I advise and serve customers in five language areas.
My own way out has become a solution for many sufferers of axillary hyperhidrosis. I am very pleased that you have also come across our offer.
Please note: I am not a doctor and therefore cannot give you medical advice. I can only tell you about my experiences and what has helped me - but that is no guarantee that it will help you too.
Check carefully what is good for you. I have listed many links on the "Hyperhidrosis" page. There you will find a lot of information about possible treatments for excessive sweating. You decide which way is right for you. You can also get support from a doctor.
How other products came into being
Night sweats, foot sweats and incontinence
Incontinence
Our system with the additional protection of exchangeable absorbent pads has now also found a new and equally useful application. Incontinence in men. Here too, fluid is lost which leads to embarrassing stains.
The sureshorts pants from laulas® work with the system that has been successful in laulas® underarm perspiration shirts since 2008. Men with the problem of urinary incontinence and corresponding leakage of urine via urge incontinence, stress incontinence, mixed incontinence or overflow incontinence will find safe and long-tested help in the sureshorts incontinence pants.
Again, without interfering with the body.
Foot perspiration
We have been searching for a long time for a textile solution for people with foot perspiration. In Italy we found a manufacturer of sports socks with a long experience in socks. His patented solution with 2 functions in one sock convinced us.
Breathable ventilation slits ensure optimal ventilation and thus less moisture on your foot. Sewn-in silver fibres additionally prevent the smell of perspiration.
Night sweats
A long-time friend and textile engineer, with a lot of experience in the field of bedding, gave us this idea and immediately the perfect manufacturer in Germany to go with it.
According to her experience, virgin sheep's wool from merino sheep is the best choice to ensure an optimal bed climate and thus significantly less perspiration during the night.
As you are used to from laulas®, our bedding is also of very high quality and also from controlled organic cultivation and animal husbandry.

Personally, I am motivated by the fact that many customers have found a little piece of quality of life thanks to laulas®. I am happy that I have found a meaningful professional activity thanks to a former problem - in the spirit of Goethe, who once wrote:
"Even from the stones that are put in your path, you can build something beautiful."
