SKYLOTEC Outdoor

The Official Launch of the New Collection

“Some names change quietly. Others mark the beginning of something bigger. This is one of those moments.”

These words capture what it means to bring Climbing Technology and SKYLOTEC Outdoor together. Combining two brands means merging decades of experience, technical expertise, and a shared passion for the mountains, movement, and the people who rely on our gear when it matters most.

What does this mean for you?

First of all: nothing gets lost. Your trusted products, the quality you know, and the values behind them remain unchanged. Where changes do occur, they are improvements: stronger expertise, broader know-how, and one clear ambition: to build an even better future for outdoor sports together.

It’s not about leaving something behind—it’s about taking the best of both worlds and moving forward as one.

Same commitment to safety
Same love for climbing
A stronger path ahead

Welcome to SKYLOTEC Outdoor.

A Merger Enters Its Final Phase

After the full integration of Climbing Technology, announced in autumn 2025, the company reaches a new milestone with the launch of the SKYLOTEC Outdoor collection. Starting March 2026, Climbing Technology will be fully integrated into SKYLOTEC, with a unified brand identity, a new website, and a strengthened commercial network.

Market Reorganization and Focus on Specialist Retail

Alongside the launch, SKYLOTEC has reorganized its commercial structures in key outdoor markets in Germany and Austria. The goal is to strengthen partnerships with specialist retailers, consolidate market presence, and develop the brand long-term in the sports and outdoor sector.

“Forged in the Alps”: European Manufacturing Excellence

The “Forged in the Alps” claim embodies excellence in production, user-oriented innovation, and the expertise of mountain professionals. With full integration of Climbing Technology, SKYLOTEC manages the entire production chain—from design to final assembly—entirely in Europe. This European-centered production allows exceptional depth and breadth in manufacturing. Aludesign’s facility in Italy remains operational and has received significant investments to improve efficiency and capacity, ensuring sustainable growth and a strong presence in the European market.

Words from the CEO

Kai Rinklake, CEO of SKYLOTEC GmbH, states:
“With the official launch of SKYLOTEC Outdoor, we reach a key milestone in our brand development. Integrating Climbing Technology allows us to combine strengths, expand our innovation, and offer retailers an even stronger product range. At the same time, we are investing in production sites and sales to grow as a reliable partner in the outdoor and sports segment.”

Commitment to Customers and Market

In a highly competitive global market, synergy is key. SKYLOTEC’s promise—“We get you there”—reflects the company’s commitment to helping people reach their goals safely and with high-quality gear.

From the end of March 2026, the SKYLOTEC Outdoor collection will be available through leading specialist retailers and selected B2B channels.
