Innovations That Challenge Convention

With the introduction of the first headlamp in 1973, the legendary

GRIGRI assisted blocking belay device in 1991, and the MAESTRO

rescue descender in 2019, Petzl ingenuity has always pushed

standard practices forward. Since the creation of Petzl in 1970,

our objective has always been to make progressing in dark or

vertical spaces safer and more comfortable.

Going Farther

As passionate pioneers, we delight in creating new opportunities

for our users to venture into ever more committing terrain — to go

farther and higher, to work more efficiently, to maximize safety and

to make what was inaccessible today accessible tomorrow.

Simplicity, Durability, Eff iciency

In every tool we design and construct, we prioritize simplicity,

durability, and efficiency. For Petzl, being a pioneer has meant

50 years of passion, expertise, innovation, and continuous

improvement. This approach to our craft and our business has

allowed us to serve as a global expert, as we did in 2006 with

the conception of the EXO personal escape system. At the

request of, and in collaboration with, the firefighters of New York

City, we were able to design an efficient solution that would allow

easy escape in critical situations. It’s an achievement that has

been recognized with several awards, including best invention

of the year by Time Magazine.

Beyond the Standards

We have a deep responsibility to the people who trust us with

their lives, and we develop, test, and qualify all of our products

above required standards. Our design center, based in France,

integrates all crafts that are related to the creation of products:

mechanical, textile, electronic, optical, and technological. From

the design and prototype phases, the reliability of a product and

the safety of the user are continuously evaluated, with particular

attention to risks of use.

With labs dedicated to product testing, we conduct dynamic fall

and impact resistance tests, perform cyclical testing, and evaluate

performance, as well as beam quality and burn times of our

headlamps. This process includes rigorous field testing in order

to test the ergonomics and reliability during real-world use.

Zero Defects - PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)

Reliability is at the center of our concerns: our goal is for our

products to consistently function at the same level of excellence.

Our objective is to allow zero defective products to leave our

facilities, which involves processes with significant extra costs

at every stage of production.

As we navigate an increasingly globalized economy, we go to

great lengths to support our distributors and dealers, and we are

heavily involved in the fight against counterfeit products.

Production and Inspection

Petzl’s production sites are located in France, in the towns of

Crolles, Eybens, and Rotherens, as well as in Rawang, Malaysia.

Remaining competitive and keeping the majority of our production

in France means that we continuously optimize our production

lines and reduce our waste. This production infrastructure is

complemented by long-term partnerships with key suppliers in

Europe and Asia.

Our purchasing and quality control teams work closely with

suppliers, ensuring to the best of our abilities, product reliability

and quality that meets or exceeds our strict requirements. Quality

inspection is present throughout every step of the production

process: machine inspection of operations, human inspection

at key points, further reinforcement by error-proofing systems

and final individual inspection of each product.

We regularly audit the methods, quality management systems,

and CSR practices (Corporate Social Responsibility) of our

suppliers and strategic partners, especially when it comes to

their employees.
