Let the touch do the talking

Every individual fingertip contains 700 highly sensitive sensors – which is an incredible number!

The most decisive are the so-called Pacinian corpuscles. These are so sensitive that they can feel unevenness smaller than a fifth of a millimetre. There is no other part of the human body that can match such sensitivity. What these corpuscles feel and experience is transported directly to our brain. Without filters and without detours. They create trust and closeness without a word being uttered.
