MARKER has stood for innovation and safety in skiing for over seven decades. In 1952, Hannes Marker presented the world's first ski binding with safety release. In the 1970s, the M series with automatic heel release revolutionized the binding market. With the Duke PT and the continuous expansion of the Royal Family, MARKER has been setting new standards in the freeride and freestyle segment since 2007. Since the launch of Protective Snow Equipment in the 12/13 season, the company based in Penzberg, Bavaria, has also been presenting innovations in helmets, goggles and protectors. With bindings such as the Kingpin, the world's first Pintech binding with TÜV certification in accordance with the DIN ISO 13992:2007 standard, and the Alpinist, MARKER has also been conquering the touring market since 2014. In 2022, MARKER used sustainable materials such as bio-based and recycled plastics in the production of the Cruise comfort pin binding for the first time, making it a pioneer in the industry in terms of sustainability. MARKER has been part of the Elevate Outdoor Collective since 2022.
