Founded in Germany in 1980, Ortovox was born out of a major innovation in mountaineering: the first dual-frequency avalanche transceiver. From the outset, the brand has had a clear mission: to make the mountains safer, without ever sacrificing performance.
Over the years, Ortovox has become an essential reference in avalanche safety, ski touring, mountaineering, and technical outdoor activities. Shovels, probes, avalanche transceivers, and high-performance clothing: each product is developed with extreme standards, tested in the field, and designed for real-world conditions, where commitment leaves no room for approximation.
The brand also stands out for its unique expertise in merino wool, which is intelligently used for its natural properties: thermal regulation, breathability, odor resistance, and long-lasting comfort. Added to this is a strong commitment to the environment, with responsible traceability of the wool and a sustainable approach at every stage of design.
Ortovox is the perfect combination of safety, technical expertise, and respect for the mountains. A brand designed by and for committed outdoor enthusiasts, those who go further and higher with complete confidence.
