Borvig
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Borvig was a chairlift manufacturer based in Pine Island, New York. It was founded by Gary Schulz and manufactured chairlifts from 1962-1991. Following an unsuccessful purchase of Berthoud Pass ski area in Colorado in 1991, Borvig ceased operations in 1993.
In 1996, Partek was founded as the successor to Borvig by Hagen Schulz, the son of Gary Schulz. The company was also the official parts distributor for Borvig lifts.
In 2005 Partek was sold to Doppelmayr CTEC along with all of Borvig's lift designs and patents.
In its 29 years as a lift manufacturer, Borvig installed 260 lifts in North America.
