STOCKHOLM, Sweden (Dec. 3, 2024) – RECCO, a global leader in rescue technology, is proud to announce its partnership with Mammut, a leading name in alpine performance apparel and equipment. With the release of the EIGER NORDWAND PRO HS collection, Mammut becomes the latest brand to integrate RECCO reflectors into their gear, reinforcing their commitment to safety in high alpine environments.
The EIGER NORDWAND PRO HS collection marks Mammut’s first products equipped with RECCO reflectors, a significant milestone in the brand’s pursuit of innovative safety solutions. These reflectors, designed to make users searchable to professional rescuers, add a vital layer of protection for adventurers.
“The RECCO system has become a standard for professional rescue teams in mountain resorts worldwide. With the integration of RECCO reflectors into our new Eiger Nordwand Hardshell products we are more than excited to provide Mammut consumers with this additional layer of safety,” said Alfred Stoppacher, Mammut Eiger & Innovation Lead.
RECCO rescue reflectors are found across a range of outdoor products, across all seasons. The RECCO system is used in 900+ ski resorts and mountain rescue organizations in 32 countries. Search and Rescue professionals are able to utilize RECCO technology to search for people year-round, with both the RECCO Handheld Detector and the RECCO SAR Helicopter Detector. The handheld detector can search efficiently in snowy conditions, while the helicopter-carried detector can quickly search large areas, covering a square kilometer in six minutes. The helicopter detector speeds up search times and reduces risk for rescue workers.
“We are thrilled to partner with Mammut, a brand that shares our commitment to enhancing safety for outdoor enthusiasts,” said Fredrik Steinwall, CEO at RECCO. “By integrating RECCO reflectors into the Eiger collection, Mammut joins a growing network of industry leaders dedicated to making more adventurers searchable in the outdoors.”
The EIGER NORDWAND PRO HS collection will be available in stores starting Fall/Winter 2025. This collaboration reflects an exciting future for both RECCO and Mammut, as they work together to expand the accessibility of advanced rescue technology globally.
