What Consilium Safety Group does

Consilium Safety Group AB is a privately held Swedish safety technology company founded in 1912 and headquartered in Gothenburg, currently owned by Antin Infrastructure Partners. The company designs, manufactures, and services fire, flame, and gas detection systems for marine, rolling stock, building, energy, and industrial customers, supported by a wholly-owned network of regional subsidiaries spanning more than twenty countries across EMEA, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and North America. Its product architecture is built around the modular Consilium Common Platform (CCP) and its successor C2P, which unify detectors, sampling systems, control panels, temperature and oil mist sensing under a single hardware/software interface.

The portfolio spans addressable smoke and heat detectors (e.g., CD-PH, Salwico EV-P), a family of fixed gas detectors (ST350, ST480xi, ST650EX, GD10P, PG11), flame detectors (FDS303H), gas sampling systems (CGS50/500) with up to 64 sampling points, and control systems (CGD500 Touch). Software is anchored by the SMiG Safety Management System and extended by Consilium Safety Live, Live Operation, Early Action, and the recently launched SensEye AI-powered video analytics module that cross-verifies camera anomalies with sensor data. Products carry IMO/SOLAS, MED, ATEX, IECEx, SIL2, EN54, and IACS E26/E27 certifications, making them type-approved for the most demanding maritime, rail, and hazardous-area deployments.

Consilium generates revenue through three primary streams: hardware sales of detectors and panels, recurring software and digital services (SMiG, SensEye, Consilium Safety Live, SVAs), and a global aftermarket of spare parts, upgrades, retrofits, and Service Value Agreements. Distribution is via direct enterprise field sales with regional offices in all time zones, supplemented by participation in industry events and a content-driven website. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is handled through regional representatives. The company has executed an active roll-up strategy under Antin ownership, acquiring ISE (rolling stock, 2024), Insplorion's hydrogen sensor business (2025), Daspos (oil mist, mid-2026), and Integmar Marine (Türkiye, mid-2026).
