We construct and analyse two-dimensional, current-carrying ring solutions, known as kinky vortons, in the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetric global two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM). We demonstrate the existence of multiple dynamically stable configurations that persist under non-axially symmetric perturbations. These solutions are described with high accuracy by the thin string approximation and elastic string formalism, which correctly capture both their equilibrium radii and dynamical oscillation frequencies. Kinky vortons in the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetric theory establish the viability of vorton solutions in a phenomenologically motivated extension of the Standard Model, and should provide a computationally tractable proxy for vortons in the $U(1)$-symmetric 2HDM. In addition, we identify a composite domain wall configuration in which localized condensates are supported on secondary domain walls existing on a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ wall, suggesting a mechanism by which kinky-vorton-like defects could arise in a three dimensional setting.
