Panasonic Fire & Security Europe
Our history
1965
Panasonic entered the fire alarm industry by launching its first fire alarm products in Japan.
Mid-1970s
In Europe, it all started in the mid-1970s when the company Elsystem AB developed its first control panel, the EBL 100, which was at the time combined with French detectors. These detectors turned out to have extensive quality problems and therefore, through a trading house specialised in business with Japan, the company was introduced to detectors from Matsushita Electric Works. This was the start of the relationship with today’s Panasonic.
Late 1970s
In the late 1970s, Elsystem AB was acquired by the national Swedish telco, Televerket, with the idea of utilizing their network for alarm transmission.
1982
The company name was changed to Telelarm AB in 1982, when it was set up as a separate subsidiary.
1997
In 1997 it was time for a new acquisition when Securitas Teknik took over the company and created Securitas Larm AB. However, the Securitas policy changed to not own any products. Instead, they should come from external specialised companies.
1999
The solution was to sell the company to Japan, and since 1999, has Panasonic Fire & Security Europe AB been an integral part of the Panasonic Corporation.
