ZIPPO's principle is never to gild the lily
We never resort to any "space age" polymer materials and high-tech ignition systems. Our goal is; Simple, firm and practical, ZIPPO can provide you with a safe and reliable fire source at any time you need. The 0.27-inch-thick chrome-plated copper cover and the 0. 18-inch-thick stainless steel inner container constitute the solid shell of ZIPPO. The fire core made of glass fiber can permanently ensure the reliability of combustion; Flint wheels can be used 73,000 times. ZIPPO is simple, sturdy and practical everywhere.
The ingenious windproof design makes ZIPPO famous all over the world. But in fact, the key technology of ZIPPO lies in its flame itself. Unlike other brands of lighters, Zippo is not a gas lighter. Its fuel is a very stable petroleum extract, and the flame produced by its combustion is not only safe and reliable, but also extremely clean and will not produce any pollution. This liquid fuel keeps moving in windbreaks. In fact, the way ZIPPO burns is like an oil lamp, which is why ZIPPO is so waterproof and windproof.
