"One Measure
Of An Idea's Brilliance Is How Obvious It Seems In Retrospect." Margaret Guroff
(C) 2005 Bibow Design Group was founded in September of 2003 with a simple mission, to design and provide ergonomic, specialty tools for the plumbing, welding, HVAC/R industries and other professional trades. (HOW IT ALL STARTED) Bibow Design Group and Bibow Industries, Inc. officially started when Warren Bibow, a Master Carpenter for 45 years, got disgusted in the Spring of 2003 after not having a "simple, cost-effective, all-in-one solution" to organizing his torch, hose, flint striker, valve key, etc. around/on his B-Acetylene tank. That one problem led Warren to design and develop a simple, crude tool to organize the major components (torch, hose, flint strikers, valve keys, etc.) used in soldering, welding, and brazing around his type "B" acetylene tank. Thus, TANKMATE® was born!
Upon seeing the crude invention in
the Spring of 2003,
Warren's son Chris, a successful Wall St. Analyst, took his father's
proto-type tank organizing tool, conducted extensive industry research and then
refined and standardized said tool to various cylinders throughout the plumbing,
welding, HVAC/R, medical and scuba diving industries... After showing the
refined tools to various plumbers, welders, and HVAC/R technicians and general contractors
(who gladly offered to buy the TANKMATE®),
Warren and Chris knew they had designed a REAL PRODUCT that solved
an unfilled organizing need.
After Chris conducted further industry analysis and product research, coupled with ample
end-user analysis, Chris came to realize that hand-carrying tanks was a real
pain-in-the-wrist, and that
hand-carrying tanks IN ANY & EVERY INDUSTRY the traditional
way--(by the Valve Stem and/or Regulator...), would lead
end-users to developing CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME and
ARTHRITIS. This
one revelation led Chris to design and invent a
simple Tank Handle Hook™ and Tank Handle™. After the TankMate® and
Tank Handles™ technologies were introduced to the market in 2003, it was clear that EVERY person in the world
hand carrying tanks or wanting to better organize the major components-(torch,
hose & accessories) used with
any and all tanks, would want to BUY a low cost, highly efficient and effective
SYSTEM. Our mission is to maximize shareholders' value by providing our customers with unique, state-of-the-art products and services solutions to common, overlooked problems plaguing mankind and their use of tools.
