Company's history

Dating back to the early thirties of the last century, fire extinguishers and fire-fighting equipment have been produced on our site in Apolda, a small town located in Thuringia, Germany, situated within the triangle of the surrounding and famous cities of Weimar, Jena, and Naumburg.

Already in 1957, the production of high-pressure steel cylinders was started in order to extent the product range to other fields of technical applications.

In the 1990 the company underwent a comprehensive restructuring process, accompanied by major investments in most modern manufacturing and testing equipment. Subsequently the company was certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2008 for the first time in 1993.

Since 2016 eurocylinder systems AG is part of the diversified industrial group Serafin based in Munich.

Today eurocylinder systems AG has an annual production capacity of more than 500,000 cylinders, manufactured on two production lines, and is among the top-5 of the European steel cylinder manufacturers.
