The trade shows had a digital format this year due to Covid, but the tradition of awards remained the same. RECCO brand partners were as usual nominated for several awards from ISPO Munich, Outdoor Retailer and Scandinavian Outdoor Group. Here is a summary of the RECCO equipped apparel and gear.
RECCO is a rescue system utilized by more than 900 rescue organizations worldwide to facilitate the rapid location of burials and people lost in the outdoors. The two-part system consists of a detector used by organized rescue groups and reflectors that are integrated into apparel, helmets, protection gear or boots. Together they enable directional pinpointing of a victim’s precise location using harmonic radar but are not a substitute for a transceiver. Complementary in function, the system is an additional tool that does not interfere with avalanche dogs, transceiver searches or probe lines. The RECCO system facilitates a faster organized search and increases the chance of being found in time. RECCO AB was founded in 1983 and is owned by its founder Magnus Granhed and the publicly traded investment company Traction AB (listed on OMX Nordic Exchange Stockholm).
