For 50 years, Petzl has been built around four pillars, four fundamental values that motivate every decision we make: remaining a stable family business, encouraging innovation to imagine the best solutions, insisting on industrial excellence with the goal of zero defects, and remaining engaged with our communities by providing global best practices.

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.
