In 1982, Hartmut Ortlieb founded ORTLIEB in Nürnberg. In 1997 the firm relocated to the franconian town of Heilsbronn, not far from Nuremberg. In 2007, Ortlieb celebrates its 25th anniversary. How time flies! Ortlieb’s first products were dry bags and bicycle panniers hand-made from truck tarps on his mother’s sewing machine in a backyard garage in preparation for his first long bicycle and climbing tours. From these humbling beginnings, the company has developed into a leading high-tech enterprise with 100 employees. The collection has grown to include over 300 individual products. Even today, everything is located under one roof: from development to engineering, production, sales and marketing and shipment.
Ortlieb products are characterised by tightly sealed closure systems: for example roll closures, waterproof zippers, velcro, or sliding seal closures and bomb proof construction. Many of the design features are patented and serve as the benchmark in the bike and outdoor market. To visit the Ortlieb website click here To find stockists in your area click here |
