Health & Wellbeing at the core
How it all began...
The history of KLAFS begins with Erich Klafs. Whilst he did not invent the sauna, he made a significant contribution to its breakthrough.
An ingenious idea
In 1952, Erich Klafs personally delivers the first sauna, using his car and a small transport trailer. This was the first completely prefabricated sauna. What was previously built on site by a carpenter over a number of days, and often varying in quality, is now, thanks to a sophisticated production line, a product of assured quality and affordable, boasting a swift and efficient assembly time. An ingenious idea, that was ahead of its time.
A clear mission
Helping the sick - and protecting the healthy from illness: This is how Erich Klafs expressd why he devoted his whole life to medical bath therapy and later to the sauna. We are fully invested in the tradition of Erich Klafs. Rest assured, wherever it says KLAFS, there is wellbeing and health at the core. It's simple - we want people to feel better, both physically and mentally. This is the clear mission that drives us day after day.
A clear promise
We firmly believe that Erich Klafs, after being ridiculed for his dream of selling saunas, would be proud of what evolved from his vision.
A clear strategy
Every strong brand needs a clear strategy. We want to help our customers completely relax through first-class design. It's important to us that our products look and feel great, right down to the smallest detail.
Always near you
Of course, our boss can no longer personally deliver every sauna with his car and trailer - as Erich Klafs did in the early days. But we at KLAFS are still here for you today, and every day - whenever you need us, all over the world. Like Erich Klafs, we are convinced that every product is only as good as the advice and support available before, during and after the purchase.
