Amazonas

In 1992, I discovered the benefits of hammocks while traveling to various countries, including Ecuador, Peru, Europe, and Africa. As I planned to explore more of South America, I realized that sleeping on the ground in the rainforest was not an option. Hammocks became my solution, and they have been a significant influence on my life ever since. 

After my adventures in South America, I didn't leave my passion for hammocks behind when I returned to Germany. In fact, I started importing and selling hammocks to friends and acquaintances, and after a few months, AMAZONAS hammocks were even available in some stores. From there, my ambition to create my own hammock products and bring them to market grew stronger. This led me to establish my own hammock weaving mill in Brazil, the birthplace of hammocks. Spending months there with traditional hammock makers taught me the essential skills that I still use today. The experiences and qualities that I discovered in Brazil can still be found in our products today.
