Petzl Head Torches
Background
The Petzl family company originated with the current owners father, Fernand Petzl, and his passion for caving. One of the leading experts of his generation, he spent his life experimenting with new vertical progression techniques and invented equipment that radically changed the status quo. The Petzl company quickly applied these underground tools and solutions to other vertical environments: to the mountains first - rock climbing and mountaineering - and then to the professional sector, with work and rescue at height.
Petzl is now known as the leading innovator in lighting the vertical world and has been associated with all major underground, alpine and Himalayan adventures since the 1970s. While closely involved with outdoor sports enthusiasts and professionals, Petzl remain true to it's core values and ways: listening to and valuing it's customers, taking innovative and practical approaches and demanding the highest quality.
