The Company
R. Veigel GmbH Spiel- und Sportwaren-
fabrik is a company focusing on toys,
fun and recreation. Our most
successful product is Magic Balloon -
a creative toy that proves one more
time: Great ideas are simple in nature.
Company History - A story of success
In the mid-Fifties Dr. Helmut Cohn developed
an elastic paste which made the impossible
possible. The product was called "Blase Ball"
and was marketed directly at toy shows/fairs.
The "Blase Ball" paste allows kids to make
their own balloon creations by blowing up the
elastic paste and shaping it. From simple
round shapes to funny fantasy figures,
assembled with differently sized balloons,
Blase Ball supported creative playing
and became a real success, domestically and overseas.
1993 R.Veigel GmbH took over the product
and expanded the success story further.
Believing that a static company cannot
survive, we've continued to improve and
refine our product. We introduced a one
of a kind blowing tube with a one way
safety check valve and focused on innovative
marketing activities to ensure continuing
growth opportunities in new markets
around the globe.
The increase in demand overseas
required that the old 'Blase Ball'
be given the new name "Magic Balloon".
