Princeton Tec’s HQ is located in Pennsauken NJ, USA, where all of our lights are constructed from concept to completion. We also have a plastic injection molding facility and tool shop down the road in Berlin. This allows us to personally ensure paramount quality as we prioritize attention to detail during the entire manufacturing process right here at home.

History & Evolution

Princeton Tec was born with our founder’s invention of the Bottom Timer, the industry’s first ever automatic dive timer. From there, similar applications were used at Princeton Tec to create a fully waterproof divable flashlight, an innovative product noted for its affordability, opening up a whole new world for recreational divers across the globe. As we continued to engineer premier lighting products for underwater exploration, our foundational flashlight collection, Dive, was formed.

As our Dive collection flourished, we decided to expand the Princeton Tec brand into all areas of outdoor adventure, and designed excellent headlamps and handheld lights specifically crafted for the outdoor activities our products still support today.

Our Tactical line was cultivated as we returned to our roots of underwater illumination and began supplying the U.S. Military with strobe lights for Navy SEALs. The positive response to Princeton Tec products from military personnel inspired us to engineer personal lighting products fit for all branches of the military. Now, with our matured collection of Tactical products, we proudly serve the specialized needs of the military, first responders, and other everyday heroes with industry leading lighting products.

Princeton Tec continues to nurture our brand with the same spirit of innovation that got us to where we are today, as we persist in our pursuit to push limits and empower oursleves to go further.

Every day, a small piece of America’s heritage is carried around in the pockets of a nation. A small but solid reminder that anything worth doing is worth doing right. At Case, our knives are built by people with integrity for people of integrity. That’s the way we’ve done it for over a hundred years, and that’s how we’ll do it for the next hundred years to come.

Our roots extend back to 1889, when four enterprising brothers—William Russell (W.R.), Jean, John, and Andrew Case (a.k.a. “The Case Brothers”)—began selling handcrafted knives from the back of a wagon in upstate New York. John Russell (Russ) Case, the son of W.R., formed W.R. Case & Sons, as it is known today. Russ’s father acted as his son’s consultant, helping to stabilize the company’s early finances while building a reputation as the most respected name in American cutlery.

From designs that tamed the American wilderness, landed on the moon, and defended freedom for our country, our knives have earned their place in some of our nation’s defining moments. And because they’re carefully crafted with the finest materials and twice tested for durability, Case knives are not only passed down for generations, but they have found their way into the hands of famous admirers and avid collectors, including some famous prize-winning bull riders, country music greats, and even former U.S. presidents.

Wildo has its roots in the Swedish Allemansrätt or in English the All mans right. A tradition where every person has the privilege to enjoy the outdoors. Being surrounded by forests, lakes, and land has instilled in us a love for the great outdoors and a constant desire for adventure.

 Our Journey started back in 1979 when we decide it was time to improve the conditions for  our outdoor community. We needed products that was easy and functional  to use, pack and store. They needed to be durable in rough conditions, light enough to carry with you and  appreciated so highly that they would be used time and time again. This was of the essence when the koncept of our compact eating utensil was formed.

As inventor with a passion for sustainability, crossed paths with a former captain in the Swedish Army,  a product line, contrary to the buy and throw away era, started to grow.  They understood the feeling of being on the move and appreciated the  requirement and demands placed on product used in this outdoor conditions. Together they introduced a new age of tableware and accessories to the outdoor world. 

When the well-respected designer Tom Dixon, at the turn of the millennium, collected products that made an impression on the world in the book Rethink, the Fold-A-Cup was represented as a reminder of the importance of function in design.
