Since the company was founded in 1980, the motivation for Ortovox has been to protect you in the best possible way while preserving what we all love so much: our mountain world. To achieve this, Ortovox supports you with outstanding technologies, the highest material standards and the best possible service, and they are committed to ethical and forward-looking practices in mountain sports. It all began in 1980 with the invention of the F2, the first dual-frequency avalanche transceiver. It was a revolution for safety in winter sports and the starting signal for ORTOVOX. Over the decades, they have developed into an international, all-round mountain sports supplier, a pioneer in wool and safety.
