5 million lighters are manufactured everyday in our factories |
Lighters sold in Europe are manufactured in France and Spain. |
Before leaving the factory, each BIC® lighter undergoes more than 50 automatic quality and security checks! |
In each of our factories,
qualified and trained BIC employees dedicate
more than 25% of
their time monitoring quality and security. |
All BIC® lighters are produced around the world with the same rigorous, highly effective quality and security control systems. Each non conforming lighter is automatically rejected.
