It all began in the 1930s with one man: Fernand PETZL, a craftsman and caver.
From the beginning, the Petzl signature on products has simply been the Petzl family's commitment to producing the best tools for users. The adventure began with Fernand Petzl's passion for caving. The expertise and know-how of a craftsman were born in the design and production of solutions for climbing, descending, safety and progress.
Today, the company has grown to become an international group while keeping its family dimension and the passion that drove Fernand Petzl.
As a responsible company and brand, Petzl is committed to continually reducing its social and environmental impacts and risks in order to earn the trust and loyalty of its customers, suppliers, communities and employees. Beyond regulatory requirements, Petzl specifically focuses its efforts on

Petzl has laboratories dedicated to testing verticality and lighting products. These tests, which often go well beyond the required standards, validate the reliability of the products and the safety of the user. They are complemented by field tests on ergonomics and reliability.
