Dahl

Dahl is multi-conglomerate corporation featured prominently in Borderlands and specifically on the planet of Pandora. One of Dahl's primary businesses is the manufacture of weapons. it is apparently the largest weapon manufacturer in Pandora.

Involvement
Dahl offers free ECHO HUDs to new settlers on Pandora. This is most likely the remains of a promotional deal offered during Pandora's short lived "gold rush" era. They also created the ECHO grid.

Dahl had established mining operations on Pandora. They were mining Iridium, which according to Patricia Tannis was 'lucrative'. Dahl used unpaid convict labor for its mining operation and when they left Pandora, they simply set the convicts free.

Dahl also appears to be the manufacturer of the green garbage bins around Pandora, having the stylized Dahl name embossed on the front of them. The claptrap Repair kits also are manufactured by Dahl.

Dahl hired Patricia Tannis as a scientific adviser to search for alien technology on Pandora.

Dahl also bought a large portion of Pandora cleverly named the Dahl Headlands.

Weapons
Dahl firearms tend to have good amounts of recoil reduction. Their weapons are said to be marketed to mercenaries and are generally finished in a green camouflage print (some rarer Dahl guns are seen in desert and urban camouflage print).
