our company
Magic Moon GmbH: one brand, two worlds clients and creators
Magic Moon Tattooing GmbH began where every real tattoo story begins: in a studio chair in Erkelenz, Germany, with an idea in your head and adrenaline in your chest. Since 1990, Magic Moon has grown from a respected tattoo studio and piercing studio into a global tattoo supply company because we realized something early: the strongest tattoos don’t come from talent alone. They come from experience, discipline, hygiene, and the right tools.
Today, our company is built on a simple promise: we elevate self-expression for customers and empower tattoo artists worldwide from design guidance to professional equipment, and from first-time appointments to full studio setups.
Tattoo Studio Model
Tattoo Studio Model: trust, craft, and unforgettable first tattoos
At the heart of Magic Moon is our tattoo studio in Erkelenz (Amsterdamer Allee 2). We’re known for professional consultations, custom work, and the kind of honest advice that protects the tattoo you’ll wear for life—because the “right tattoo” is not only about style, it’s about placement, flow, healing, and long-term quality.
Our studio model is client-first and process-driven:
- Consultation-led design (from first tattoo guidance to large custom pieces)
- Experienced tattoo artists who can adapt across styles
- Strict hygiene standards and transparent aftercare support
- A calm, respectful environment where your identity and comfort matter
For Gen Z, that often means turning a mood, symbol, or moment into something clean and iconic.
For long-time collectors, it means technical consistency and
tattoos that still read beautifully years later.
A calm, respectful environment where your identity and comfort matter
Tattoo Supply Model
Equipment tested in the real world, shipped worldwide
Because our roots are in daily tattooing, our supply business isn’t theoretical—it’s built from what actually performs at a workstation. Through Magic Moon Tattoo Supply (our online shop), we provide professional tattoo equipment for artists and studios worldwide: tattoo needles and cartridges, tattoo inks, tattoo machines, hygiene and disposables, and studio equipment—whether you’re building your first kit or outfitting multiple stations. This side of our business runs on three practical pillars:
- Selection with purpose: products chosen for reliability, safety, and consistency which are already tasted by our team of artist who has 40 years experience
- Artist-level standards: equipment that supports clean work and predictable healing
- Scale: an e-commerce model built to serve individual artists and professional studios internationally
In short: we don’t sell “random catalog items.” We sell what we’d trust on our own clients.
Artist Empowerment Model: partnerships, mentoring, and the USA expansion
Magic Moon isn’t only a supplier; it’s a support system for the industry. Our mission is to empower tattoo artists—especially those leveling up from learning to earning, or moving from artist to studio owner. That’s why we focus on long-term partnerships with artists and studios, helping them access the tools, workflows, and guidance needed to operate professionally.
To serve artists beyond Europe, we established a dedicated U.S. presence through Magic Moon Tattoo Supply USAbringing “Germany-tested” supply standards and European brand access to the American market. The USA operation positions itself as artist-run, shaped by real daily tattoo work, and designed to help professionals “elevate their artistry” with premium supplies.
Our empowerment model is built around:
- Partner studio support: helping studios source dependable supplies and improve consistency
- Mentoring and training direction: supporting artists who want to open studios responsibly
- Community mindset: strengthening the craft by raising standards tools, hygiene, and professionalism
The Magic Moon Difference
Most brands are either “studio” or “shop.” Magic Moon GmbH is both one ecosystem where clients get expert body art and artists get pro-grade tattoo supplies plus real-world support. From Erkelenz since 1990 to worldwide equipment shipping and a Magic Moon USA entity, everything we do points to the same outcome: better tattoos, stronger artists, and a community built to last.
