Innovative Spirit Industrial Excellence

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-proof ing systems and f inal 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.

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 signif icant 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 f ight against counterfeit products.

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 f ield testing in order to test

the ergonomics and reliability during real-world use.

Innovations That Challenge Convention

With the introduction of the f irst 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 eff iciently, 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 eff iciency. 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 f iref ighters of New York City, we were able to design an eff icient

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.
