Today Kong S.p.A. manufactures some of the world's best climbing, safety and rescue equipment in its modern factory in Monte Marenzo just south of Lecco. The company is managed by a sixth generation Bonaiti. 95% of all Kong products are manufactured inside the Kong factory.
With an innovative approach that characterizes KONG comes the Frog, a revolutionary directional connector with an automatic clamping action that engages when it touches the anchor point.
Produced after an intensive design phase in collaboration with Politecnico of Milan, the Frog is a totally new connector, both in its appearance and mechanism.
Frog makes the concept of a carabiner thought of as a “hook” obsolete.
The insertion is extraordinarily quick and safe, even in “distant” anchor points, not easily reached with standard connectors.
