OUR STORY Aurora Design Associates, Inc - Since 1980 It all started trying to solve a problem. “How can we serve a chilled bottle of wine without a watery mess? Can the wine temperature be held constant; without getting too cold in an ice bucket or too warm, with no ice?" Engineers gathered and extensive tests were run on a variety of prototypes. The first production run came from parts made in New York and assembly took place in Salt Lake City. Today, the Aurora Design Servers are shipped all over the world, from our warehouse in Salt Lake City, Utah. U.S. & Foreign patents have been issued on the Aurora Design Servers. The U.S. Patent numbers are 272882, 4388813, 4393665, 4255944.
