GEZE GmbH

GEZE - We open doors and set the standards of tomorrow today

The company's pioneering spirit, pursuit of innovation and uncompromising quality have been unbroken since its foundation in 1863. The independent family company develops, produces and sells system solutions for door, window and safety technology. As one of the market, innovation and design leaders, GEZE has achieved world class status. Starting from the company's headquarters in Leonberg in the Stuttgart region, GEZE is represented by 27 subsidiaries and over 2,100 employees throughout the world. In the financial year 2009/2010, a total turnover of approx. 380 million Euros has been achieved.

The door closers from GEZE are uncompromising quality and rank among the best known in the world. The automatic door systems from GEZE open up an almost unlimited range of door design options. State-of-the-art innovative drives in which a high performance capability, safety, comfort and design are the top priority ensure that they are the focus of every entrance area. The glass systems from GEZE with their award-winning fitting solutions are characterised by functionality and great architectural freedom.

The system concept always in view

GEZE safety technology on doors and windows is important for fire prevention in emergency exits, controlled access and protection of the building shell from the outside. Smoke and heat extraction systems from GEZE save lives, as they make it possible to escape from the building quickly and safely in case of fire. The central control and visualisation systems monitor automation components in building technology and provide security and comfort as a result of multi-faceted networking options. For each of these objectives, GEZE offers individual solutions and perfectly harmonizing solution concepts which combine safety requirements in an intelligent system and open and close doors and windows in a coordinated manner in the case of danger.

Innovative products determine the future

One of the issues in window technology that determines the future is energy efficiency. "Intelligent" windows with coordinated drive and control technology from GEZE save energy and also provide comfort and security. Barrier-free door and window systems, e.g. with remote control, take into consideration the needs of the older generations of tomorrow. Control and monitoring systems of the opening conditions of windows - in the case of fire or for everyday ventilation - will be standard in a few years time. GEZE is already equipped for this. A focus on the future also means sustainability. GEZE incorporates economic, ecological and technical sustainability criteria, as well as aspects of the quality of life, even into the development of its products.

GEZE in the buildings of the world

Important buildings throughout the world are fitted with system solutions and products from GEZE, for example the China Pavilion at Expo 2010 in Shanghai, the New Acropolis Museum in Athens, the Mercedes Benz-Museum in Stuttgart or the opera and concert house Palacio de las Artes Reina Sofía in Valencia to name but a few.
