Small Beginnings

They’ve become a global company that has evolved from their Californian roots to five continents around the world. Loved by the most adventurous outdoorsy people in countries such as Canada, South Africa, Italy, Japan and Australia.
They’ve developed classic staples found in the packs of most backcountry dwellers including their powerful headlamps and lightweight hiking poles. Rock-solid climbing pants, ...must-have carabiners and the warmest ski pants proves the versatility of the brand.
Trusted by the most seasoned athletes, Black Diamond has expanded their line of products to accompany any type of outdoor explorer. This is reflected in the diverse array of athletes they sponsor. With a roster of over 30 professionals––including the likes of Alex Honnold, Kelly Haplin, and Hillary Gerardi––Black Diamond is a fierce leader in the outdoor industry.

Whether summiting Everest or skiing in Alberta, Black Diamond makes the best climbing ropes, ski mitts and durable hiking apparel for everyone who goes outside.

Keep It Clean

Black Diamond has been around for a long time so it’s no surprise that they spent many of those years trying to reduce their environmental footprint.
Their products are made around the world choosing factories based on their internal policies, available materials, and local expertise. Their products are also produced with low-impact components.
This includes the likes of recycled fibres, recycled garment and gear scraps, tent poles with Green Anodizing––to eliminate nitric and phosphoric acid released into the environment, and most of the materials used in their apparel are bluesign® approved.
But, their impact goes beyond the product. Their headquarters run on solar energy; they’ve implemented the Higg Index to reduce their carbon footprint; their manufacturing facility in Salt Lake City, Utah recycles scrap materials; and, they’re at the “Champion Level” within the Blue Sky Program.
They’re even a founding member of the Outdoor Industry Association’s Climate Action Corps, an organisation that aims to regulate sustainable and ethical business practices and participation in the great outdoors.
This is only the tip of the iceberg for Black Diamond’s involvement in the community.
