At its recent Board of Management meeting in Stockholm, the European Fire and Security Group (EFSG) unanimously elected Peter Schramm as its new Chairman.
Mr. Schramm, currently Managing Director of VdS—one of EFSG’s founding members—brings a wealth of experience from an engineering and technical services background. He holds a Master’s degree in engineering with a specialization in safety technology, is an authorized assessor for preventive fire protection, and also serves as a volunteer fire squad leader in his hometown.
“I am deeply honoured by the trust the EFSG members have placed in me,” said Mr. Schramm. “I would like to especially thank my predecessor, Guillaume Savornin of CNPP, whose leadership over the past 6 years has been instrumental in building confidence in EFSG. I look forward to further advancing our shared mission: to provide high-quality support and accelerated certification services for developers, manufacturers and specifiers of fire and security equipment around the world.”
Mr. Schramm’s appointment signals continued commitment to technical excellence and collaborative innovation within EFSG, which brings together some of Europe’s most respected certification and testing bodies.
