"We are pleased to be taking over P.E.R., a strong company with an experienced team", Thomas Da Ronch and Lars Diestel agree. "We will continue to develop the core competencies of the company and strengthen cooperation with our partners". P.E.R. will also continue to expand in the particularly important aviation segment in the future.

The new partners ensure that P.E.R. remains owner-managed 25 years after its foundation - an important issue for Esther Krokeide, who established the company in Barsbüttel in 1993 together with her husband Gunnar Krokeide. Together with Peter Jacobsen she had continued to run the business since 2011 and left P.E.R's management at the end of May 2018 in the course of the takeover.

P.E.R. provides a wide range of systems for security solutions. The company, based in the Hamburg area, offers security solutions for land, sea and air. P.E.R. develops and produces photoluminescent safety products for all three sectors, such as low-location guidance systems and signage. P.E.R. also offers complete solutions for emergency power systems, including safety lighting, UPS systems, batteries and fire extinguishing ampoules. They guarantee safety in the event of a power failure, particularly in sensitive areas. Plans, such as escape and rescue plans and fire brigade plans, constitute an important part of escape and rescue control systems and round off P.E.R.'s complete safety system.
