History

In 1996 Markus Storz, founder of the Company and inventor of the Volcano Vaporizer began with the development of vaporizers and filed a patent for the removable valve balloon of the formerly called "VOLCANO Inhaler" in January 1998, followed by the patent filed in August 2000 for his invention of the heating block as a heat exchanger for “hot air extraction inhalers”. In the same year the then called “Vapormed Inhalatoren” was founded and the production and sale of the Volcano Vaporizer began. Jürgen Bickel was one of the first customers.The continuously increasing demand for a quality vaporizer required remodeling, so in December 2002 "Storz & Bickel GmbH Co. KG" was founded. Markus Storz and Jürgen Bickel became partners and pushed ahead with the fast expansion of the company. In 2004 new offices were opened in the “Rote Strasse” in Tuttlingen, Germany, and in March 2005, the subsidiary “Storz & Bickel America Inc.” started business in Oakland, California.By doing so, direct and quick service for American customers is guaranteed in terms of sales and repair service.

Volcano Vaporizer aka Volcano Vaporization System

At the same time the Volcano Vaporizer has continuously improved. In May 2007 the new Easy Valve (patented August 2006) appeared on the market accompanied with the digital version of the Volcano (Volcano Digit. A whole product family was born, as the two valve kits and both vaporizers are absolutely compatible. Both valve kits (Easy Valve and Solid Valve) can be used on all existing Volcano base units (Volcano Classic and Volcano Digit).
