Alp Design
"Exploring, going beyond well-known limits, moving towards destinations is an old human need. In this sense, speleology probably represents one of the last frontiers."
Alp Design was founded by Stefano Masserini, a keen Caver, in 1978 - created with the purpose of conceiving, improving and realising functional equipment suited to caving.
Now, Alp Design is one of the few remaining Italian companies still producing purpose built equipment for speleology.
