Founded in 1985 in Barcelona by A. Dordella under the name TEX, the company initially specialized in the production of meters for industrial cooling and heating systems, as well as thermometers and hygrometers for storage. The company later expanded into the production of wine thermometers and accessories, eventually rebranding as PULLTEX. The Pulltap's corkscrew quickly became the most popular of its kind worldwide. In 2010, the company adopted sustainability practices, developing products that are particularly respectful of the environment.
