Fernand Petzl was only 17 years old in the 1930s when he discovered his passion for caving. Along with his friend, Pierre Chevalier, Fernand Petzl became recognised as a world leading caving specialist. Thanks to their creativity and imagination, they developed the original vertical progression techniques and perfected new equipment (climbing poles, nylon ropes) .They were behind many exploits and major discoveries, like the Gouffre Berger in the Vercors massif. At the same time, they were actively involved in creating associations and institutions that oversee caving and rescue.
In 1968 the first “Petzl” products were sold. Rope clamps and descenders allowed ropes to permanently replace ladders. This new type of technique revolutionised caving. Throughout the last 30 years, Petzl has gained a level of experience that is unanimously recognised in the field of verticality.
Petzl’s expertise stems partly from caving, the activity that defines the company’s history. The constraints encountered underground are significant; mud, sand, humidity, and absence of light. Other constraints are activity-related. While exploring a cave, it is not unusual to use fixed ropes that were first installed many years before.
To make advances in this domain Petzl had to design tough, reliable products with maximum versatility. Their practical experience in this environment led to their commitment to all vertical terrain: climbing, mountaineering, ice climbing, etc. By being at the heart of these activities, Petzl have accumulated a wide range of experience that today directly benefits the entire line of Petzl products.
Petzl truly is the world’s leading manufacturer of safety products for the vertical domain.
