Ronson has a long and illustrious history of producing high quality cigar and cigarette lighters as well as stylish smoking accessories and figural pieces for home and office use.

Ronson is the inventor of the multi-refillable gas-lighter. Ronson is the inventor of the gas-lighter with adjustable flame. Ronson is the patent holder of Worlds first gas valve.
