List of products by brand SIGG

The history of SIGG Switzerland Bottles AG begins in 1908: Ferdinand Sigg, a metal working specialist, returned to Switzerland after years of learning and travelling. Together with his friend Xaver Küng, he established an aluminium goods factory in Biel.

Sigg and Küng are united in their love for metal and their belief that aluminium is the material of the future.

Their success proves them right: Just one year after the production begins, Küng, Sigg & Cie employ 30 people. Shortly before the company moves to Frauenfeld in 1917, Xaver Küng leaves the company. It is renamed to SIGG AG Aluminiumwarenfabrik.

The company retained its name even when - after years of expansion and prosperity - it is taken over by the the main supplier in 1936.

The real story behind the SIGG Bottle is not the one that most suspect: It is not successor to the water bottle of the 20’s, but to the bed bottle, Model 26 1661. This was on the market in as far back as the 60’s. Its profile was later gradually taken from the classic Traveller Bottle, which soon enjoyed widespread acclaim. In1990, the course for the future of the Bottle was set: SIGG developed a new shape that is still typical of today’s 0.5 and 0.75 litre bottles. The bottle body was still plain, yet the quality achieved the same high level as today.

In 2008 SIGG celebrates its 100th anniversary with a market presence in over 40 countries and as the market leader in the aluminium drinking bottle segment.
