Ozone Gliders Limited is an aircraft manufacturer based in Le Bar-sur-Loup, France, although it is registered in Edinburgh, Scotland. The company specializes in the design and manufacture of paragliders in the form of ready-to-fly aircraft.[1][2][3]

The company's CEO is Mike Cavanagh, while gliders are designed by Robbie Whittall, a world champion pilot in both hang gliding and paragliding.[1][4]

The company produces a complete line of paragliders. In 2003 their line-up included the training Atom, tandem two-place Mac Daddy Bi, mountain descent Peak, competition Proton GT, sports Ozone Vibe and the intermediate Vulcan.[1]

Whittall and Ozone have collaborated with other companies, such as Pilots Right Stuff in the design of their PRS Peak mountain descent glider.[1]
