Cricket disposable
Cricket lighters are known worldwide for their quality, safety, and design. When launched in 1961, Cricket was the world´s first disposable lighter. Every day, Cricket lighters are used by approximately 200 million people in more than 100 different countries, making Cricket the world´s third largest brand of disposable lighters.
Cricket is available in different varieties and sizes: Original, Mini, Maxi, Electronic, Pocket and Pico. The lighters are available in many colors and new design series are launched regularly. Cricket is one of few disposable lighters in the world to be manufactured in nylon, which makes it possible to manufacture a thinner casing. This results in the lighter weighing very little and holding more gas.
Cricket´s continuous product development has resulted in it becoming one of the world´s safest disposable lighters today. The product has several safety functions:
- A patented valve construction that prevents dust and dirt from obstructing fuel supply.
- "Fixed flame technology," a proprietary patented system, which signifies that the flame is fixed and cannot be regulated. This makes the lighter safer since users are spared unpleasant surprises in the form of high flames.
- For a long time, Cricket was the only disposable lighter in the world that was manufactured in self-extinguishing nylon, which stops burning once the ignition source is removed.
- Cricket was the first in the world to introduce child-resistant lighters in 1993.
Furthermore, both Cricket lighters and the production process are quality certified by ISO. For example, the lighters undergo more than 100 tests before they are released to the market.
