Headlamps and climbing hardware from a family firm below the Chartreuse
A caver's workshop that became a major European maker of kit for working in the dark and at height, still family-held and unlisted. Three of its four factories are in France; the running headlamps are marked Malaysia. Five-year lamp guarantee, a spare-parts catalogue for every product family and a repair request form, but no phone number and no shops of its own.
