Throughout 2021 CoreTigo was focused on providing machine builders, automation equipment vendors, and manufacturers the missing solutions that enabled them to further increase the flexibility, adaptivity, and intelligence of their machines and production lines. CoreTigo is enabling machines can do more with the help of IO-Link Wireless communication.
Key 2021 Successes
Heading strong into 2022, CoreTigo now rapidly expands in several directions. The company branched out and opened new offices in the United States and in Italy. These join CoreTigo’s offices in Germany and Israeli headquarters.
As part of the expansion into North America, CoreTigo has brought on board Mr. Reid Schook to lead its operations in this region.

“When you break down the elements of success it always comes down to two factors; the technology, and the people.” Says CoreTigo’s CEO, Eran Zigman. “Our customers and partners put their faith in us, not only thanks to the revolutionary technology but also the people of CoreTigo. They know the team leaders, engineers, operations members, and many others in person. Being completely open and transparent gives us the advantage and gets us this trust and confidence.”
