Piz Buin is a world-renowned sun care products manufacturing company. The company saw it genesis in 1938 after a chemistry student, Franz Greiter, got severely sunburnt when climbing up the Piz Buin mountain range along the Swiss-Austrian border. Working in his home laboratory he created a sun protection cream, something that was never done before. In 1946, he was credited with inventing the world’s first sun protection solution. In 1962, the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) became a globally recognized standard for sun protection products.
Through the enterprising nature of the young Greiter, the company garnered a loyal fan following and in the decades after its inception had a number of firsts to its credit. Piz Buin was the first company to use micro-pigments that reflect UV light in its products with the first water-resistant sun care products also being credited to Piz Buin. In 1993, Piz Buin launched products using the first Triple Protection Technology that included Vitamin E that neutralized free radicals that were responsible for skin damage.
Most of the Piz Buin suncare products can be classified into four main categories; ‘summer suncare’, ‘mountain suncare’, ‘after sun’, and ‘self tan’. The Piz Buin summer suncare products use the Helioplex technology that is seen as the ultimate in sun care. This system combines UVA and UVB protection that keeps around 90% of its active protection even after five hours of sunlight. The mountain skincare products are designed to provide you with triple-layered protection from sun, wind and the cold. All these three climatic conditions are in abundance on the mountains; all the more reason to have a stock of these suncare products. As the name implies, the after sun products are designed to provide long term protection even after you have come into a shelter from being out in the hot sun.
As far as the sun tan solutions are concerned, Piz Buin has a range of innovative products that put back the glow on your face and body. After just a few hours of application you skin will get that healthy ‘bronzed’ colour. The self tanning cream is absorbed by the skin within minutes of application and renders your skin with just the right dose of ‘darkness’ that will get anyone to believe that you have spent a day out on the beach. An added benefit of this formula is its fragrant smell which is so unlike the disagreeably smelling regular suntan products .
