The Petzl head torch in its different versions has now become indispensable in the mountains and is a symbol of innovation, quality and durability.

Petzl – 50 Years of Innovation in Climbing

In 1930 the 17-year old Fernand Petzl discovered caving for himself in France and was enthusiastic about it. His fascination for caves and climbing went so far that he made a profession out of it. At the end of the Sixties Petzl marketed the first climbing and caving products under his name. Some years later, in 1975, the Petzl company was founded. It was and always has been, family-run. With his passion and craftsmanship, founder Fernand Petzl provided the necessary innovations. His son, Paul Petzl, the current managing director, was determined to make the company big. He said of his father: 

“My father was both a craftsman and a caver. This enthusiasm for discovering new things, has accompanied me since childhood. My father, Fernand Petzl, loved to develop things and then improve them.”

The passion for discovering new caves and venturing into unknown territory, prompted Fernand Petzl to develop a ground-breaking product for the future in 1943. With the invention of the nylon rope he revolutionised mountaineering, climbing, sailing and its industrial use.

With this spirit of innovation it is no surprise that Petzl head torches, Petzl harnesses and all equipment in general from the French company are used all over the world. Amateur mountaineers, sports climbers, sailors and industrial users trust in the products from the French Alps.

The combination of the four Petzl foundation pillars ensures that the innovative character of the products remains consistently high and provides new surprises. It is important for the Petzl company, to combine family tradition, a pioneering spirit, perfection in terms of product quality and the cohesion of its own communities. This is how they succeed in constantly forging ahead and developing products that change the world.

With Petzl Headlamps, Harnesses, Helmets and Much More You Are Perfectly Equipped
