At the shift of the millenium, a new idea was born on how to simplify the opening of a corked (wine) bottle. To begin with, work was concentrated in finding the hardest-fitted corks to test the 'toughest' conditions. This part of the project helped us find the best design for also extracting corks made out of plastic and other materials. After this, the company CorkIT was established. In the spring of 2001, CorkIT had its first office in "Teknikbyn of Västerås." After establishment, there was time spent finding supplier contacts to find the most suitable partners for manufacturing this completely new concept. Sales started in June 2002. The result is what you see on this website: A completely new design of the corkscrew! |
