What does James Bond have to do with knockout drops?!
The idea for the IRISgo® closure system came about after friends of our founders came into contact with knockout drops. A sad event that got them thinking. Ultimately, the inspiration came from the James Bond film intro and after countless hours of development work, the first IRISgo® product was created.

Successful crowdfunding
Our team pursued the idea with ambition and commitment despite initial setbacks. We were rewarded for our perseverance in the global Kickstarter campaign: the crowdfunding is among the most successful 1% of all campaigns on Kickstarter. As part of the crowdfunding campaign, IRISgo cups were sent to 57 countries.
