A wonderful animal! Gebhard Karst stroked his fingers over the claws and carapace of the crab that I, then a little Pfüderi, had pulled out of Lake Seelisberg. While touching it, the blind blidor chief explained to me the shape and appearance of this animal. He saw it with his fingertips. Many years later, I read in Saint-Exupéry's Little Prince that one only sees well with the heart.

The Blidor company, now 83 years old, has grown up with blind and visually impaired employees. Quality products, made from natural raw materials whenever possible, were sold throughout the country. Emphatically Swiss products from a family business. These were mainly detergents and cosmetics. 

Today, Blidor has left the old walls on Mühleweg in Langnau and transcended traditional boundaries. However, the legacy of the two Blidor founders Karst and Geiges lives on, adapted to the needs of the time. The quality products and the good contact with customers, suppliers and employees are a hallmark of the company. In a way, their quality mark.
