OUR HISTORY

In 1979, Andreas Dahlmeyer had a vision – of personalized hotel cosmetics. When entering their hotel bathroom, guests would no longer be greeted with a generic bottle of shampoo and plain soap. Instead, they would find their stay enhanced by elegantly branded products, perfectly reflecting their surroundings.

Produced in a small workshop, our founder’s first product was a bar of soap, sold in a gold-leafed black box. Soon, hoteliers were able to have the packaging printed with their logo – a simple and highly effective way to communicate their brand. It’s no surprise that the idea was an instant hit.

From day one, our mission at ADA has been to create hotel cosmetics that provide enriching experiences for both our customers and their guests. In a hotel stay, it’s often the small details that make the difference. These details have been our passion for more than 40 years, as we continue to put beauty into travel every day.
