How the yellow tube
with the unmistakeable fragrance
came about
Over a period of five years, he monitored in his laboratory the continuous improvement of the formulation of a medication, PER-SKIN-DOL “for application – on the skin – for pain”.
As a regular tournament participant, he had made it his goal to develop a topical pain reliever that would allow him to be able to resume the tennis game immediately after use. And to be able to repeat this as often as he wanted, pain-free and doping-free.
To accomplish this, the liniment with the acronym “PERSKINDOL” had to:
- pain locally and effectively
- not contain any chemical ingredients
- be rapidly absorbed, leaving no greasy film or residues behind
The Classic Fluid with a formulation based on essentials oils came on the market in 1981, and consequently the unmistakeable and relaxing scent. The essential oils have remained a constant component of all PERSKINDOL products and depending on the product family, have a thermo effect (cold and/or warm), act as an anti-inflammatory, pain reliever and healing promoter.
Today, a home medicine cabinet without the yellow tube is unthinkable.
