Established in 1907 by Julius Franz Meister, who was formerly a manufacturer of brass buttons for the Austro-Hungarian Army. The first IMCO lighters were manufactured after the WW-I, between 1918 and 1919 and patented in 1922. Initially, lighters were made from empty cartridges and metals recovered from shell casings that had been used during the First World War. Later, around 1930, they began to be manufactured in stainless steel. The company closed business in 2012 when the Austrian company buy Japanese company Windmill and move all factory to the mainland China.
