    • 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.

Why we are the global market leader

Why we are the global market leader

STÖBICH Brandschutz has been listed in the encyclopaedia of German world market leaders since 2010. What does this mean in concrete terms?

Our more than 40-year company history is based on the many product ideas and developments of our company founder Dr Jochen Stöbich, e.g. the first fire protection closure for continuous conveyor technology or the first textile fire protection solutions. From a one-man business to an internationally active group of companies with an official listing as world market leader - that is the STÖBICH success story.
The background to the ranking is explained in more detail here.

The organisation
Die Deutsche Wirtschaft (DDW) is the open information network of German managing directors, company owners and thought leaders. The main focus is on the approximately 250,000 shareholders and managing directors of the 35,000 largest companies in Germany (turnover of approx. 5 million euros or more). Together with Florian Langenscheidt and Bernd Venohr, DDW publishes the encyclopaedia of German world market leaders. It includes global stars such as Volkswagen as well as hidden champions, including STÖBICH.

The ranking
With the scientific support of Professor Dr Bernd Venohr, the world market leaders - currently 1,495 - are determined according to strict criteria in an in-depth analysis. Thanks to our strong export performance, corporate management "made in Germany" and global niche dominance, STÖBICH has been included in the lexicon of German world market leaders. STÖBICH is currently ranked 1,122nd, a position that we have not bought, but rather earned as an innovative medium-sized company. And when you consider that we are a hidden champion, we can be all the more proud of our title.

What is a hidden champion?
Unknown and yet successful worldwide - this is how you can describe the term "hidden champion". Hidden champions are not recognised by the general public as they are usually only found in a niche market. In our case, this is structural fire protection: our systems are installed all over the world, whether in the Eiffel Tower in Paris or Apple Park in Silicon Valley. What hardly anyone realises is that of the 3,000 or so hidden champions worldwide, almost half are based in Germany.

The "German Global Market Leader" seal is regarded as proof of quality and trust in technology and market leadership. We can continue to wear it with pride, as you can read in our ➥ entry.
