    • Fire protection curtains

      Fire protection curtains

      In case of fire, fire protection curtains close wall and ceiling openings. Their construction (roll-down or folding technique) and the use of different fabrics provide for a wide range of applications as well as different protection goals, classifications and time classes. The casing and guide rails of the highly flexible systems blend almost invisibly into the building and allow plenty of scope for sophisticated architecture and open room concepts.

    • Conveyor system closures

      Conveyor system closures

      Various production and logistics processes call for the most diverse types of conveyor systems. If these conveyor lines pass through fire-retardant or fire-resistant walls or ceilings, the openings required for this purpose must be provided with fire protection closures to prevent the spread of fire through the conveyor system or the goods conveyed. In the event of fire, conveyor system closures (CSC for short) must close these openings immediately and automatically. Fire resistance classified according to DIN EN 13501-2 is just as important as the smooth clearance of the closing areas in the event of a fire.

    • Smoke curtains

      Smoke curtains

      A smoke apron is a part of a smoke control system which also includes other components such as natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilators (EN 12101-2) and mechanical smoke and heat exhaust ventilators (EN 12101-3). Smoke aprons restrict the movement of combustion gases within a building in case of fire.

    • Smoke protection curtains

      Smoke protection curtains

      Once closed, smoke protection curtains (SPC) restrict the passage of smoke during the phase of fire formation, so that in the event of a fire, there is enough time to rescue people and animals from the room behind the curtain and to recover material assets without the need for respiratory equipment.

    • Tube sealings

      Tube sealings

      The solution for issues with fire protection dampers in ventilation and air conditioning systems in conveyor processes. Stöbich offers fire protection for pneumatic conveyor lines the closing elements of which are not exposed to the flow of conveyed material. This way, the closing element cannot be damaged or contaminated by abrasive conveyed goods.

    • Control units

      Control units

      Each automatic fire protection system needs a control unit. They are critical to safety, because a failure of this function means that the entire investment into a fire protection sealing has been in vain. Control units coordinate both fire detection and interaction with other control units, such as higher-level building control systems or clearing of the closing area of conveyor system closures.

STÖBICH Group expands its company car fleet with hybrid vehicles

Goslar-based fire protection manufacturer now offers plug-in hybrids as company cars for its group of companies.

STÖBICH Group expands its company car fleet with hybrid vehicles

Goslar-based fire protection manufacturer now offers plug-in hybrids as company cars for its group of companies.

With the recently expanded company car policy, employees of the STÖBICH group of companies can now take advantage of the use of a company car as a hybrid model. This is part of a comprehensive roadmap in which changes that have already been implemented and those that are still to come are intended to contribute to the future reduction of CO₂ emissions, according to the commercial managing director of the STÖBICH Group, Peter Stahl. "The conversion of the company fleet to combined drive concepts is not only timely, it is also part of our environmental strategy, with which we want to make our contribution to climate protection and expand it even further in the future," Stahl continued.

The decision in favour of a combined drive concept and against a conventional combustion engine is to be made easier for employees by amending and aligning the company car guidelines with environmentally friendly models. This is intended to create an additional incentive for choosing a vehicle with a CO₂-optimised drive concept. Through this kind of internal subsidy for hybrids, the management hopes to have a positive influence on the employees' decision. For the time being, the change in company car regulations can only be applied to the vehicles of the sales department or people in management positions. "We hope that suitable hybrid models will soon be available from the vehicle manufacturers for service and assembly use, so that the conversion of the fleet can be implemented quickly there as well," adds the CFO.

Last year, STÖBICH had already completely converted the lighting of the production facilities at the manufacturing site to LED technology. Likewise, for some years now, the company has been offering the option of leasing bicycles so that people can even do without a car altogether on their way to work. E-charging columns and a large-scale photovoltaic system on the roof of the production facility at the headquarters are soon to follow.
