History

Pelican Products was founded in Torrance, California in 1976 by David and Arline Parker. It was originally a mail-order home business founded by David H. Parker in 1975. It was David Parker's desire to develop unique and practical products for the dive market. In October 2004, a private equity investment firm Behrman Capital, based in New York and San Francisco, paid about $200 million for Pelican Products. In August 2006, Behrman Capital announced that Lyndon J. Faulkner has been named CEO of Pelican Products, Inc. by its Board of Directors. He succeeds David H. Parker, who has retired from his role as Chief Executive Officer and was elected Vice Chairman of the Company抯 Board. In January 2009, Pelican Products announced the acquisition of long-time competitor, Hardigg Industries, the world抯 largest manufacturer of roto molded protective cases, based in South Deerfield, Mass. Pelican Products was supported in the acquisition by the New York and San Francisco based private equity group Behrman Capital. Collectively the new entity will employ more than 1,500 employees. Pelican Products now operates in 12 countries, has 22 offices globally and maintain six manufacturing locations throughout Europe and North America.

Cases

Main article: Pelican case

Pelican manufactures airtight, waterproof plastic cases that meet U.S. military, NATO, IEC, and ATA standards for waterproofing, stacking, impact, and durability.

Flashlights

Pelican flashlights (known as Pelican Lights) use Xenon, Halogen, and LED technology. Many are safety approved with features such as valves, anti-shock systems, and battery polarity guards. The safety approvals[1] include ETL (Edison Testing Labs), UL (Underwriters Laboratories), FM (Factory Mutual), CE-EX (ATEX Europe), CSA (Canadian Standards Association), USAR (Urban Search and Rescue), MSHA (Mine Safety Health Administration)[2] and the AUS (Australian Board of Approvals). These flashlights are popular with divers due to their common waterproof feature. They are also highly regarded by Merchant Mariners who need a flashlight to be durable, waterproof and rated for hazardous environments due to their work environment.

Technology

Flashlight and equipment case technology that Pelican has made improvements on include the use of Gore-tex membranes in cases. Pelican also has its own patented designs, such as the Recoil LED. One of their newest inventions, the 7060 LED flashlight, is used by the Los Angeles Police Department as its standard issue duty light.[3][4]
