160 years have passed from the founding date in June 1863 to the present day. In the early days, Schachenmayer & Cie manufactured only strands and cords. Today, EDELRID is a global manufacturer of climbing ropes, mountaineering and work safety equipment. For 160 years the company experienced continuous ups and downs – at one moment the development of the kernmantle rope caused a revolution in mountaineering, only a few years later almost the entire production was destroyed in a major fire. In the 1970s, the seat climbing harness developed by EDELRID paved new paths in the climbing world, only a few years later a second fire ravaged the company building. Thus, disasters and successes alternated and contributed their part to the fact that EDELRID has become the company you know today.
