What D+H Polska does

D+H Polska sp. z o.o. is the Polish operating subsidiary of the German D+H Group (D+H Mechatronic), a manufacturer with over 50 years of experience in smoke and heat extraction technology. The company distributes, installs, and services D+H-manufactured fire protection and building automation systems in Poland, including gravitational smoke extraction systems, fire signaling systems under the Protec brand, fire power cut-off switches (DH-PWP-1), actuator and drive systems (chain and rack drives for windows and smoke flaps), natural ventilation systems, and electromagnetic fire door holders. Its proprietary AdComNet and ACB (Advanced Communication Bus, based on Modbus) communication protocols enable integration with building management systems and are offered as openly documented standards to system integrators.

The company serves the Polish building and construction industry as its primary segment, with secondary reach into certified fire protection designers and installers, and a smaller consumer-facing channel for residential natural ventilation. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales through four regional offices (Wrocław headquarters, Gdańsk, Warsaw, Katowice) covering all 16 voivodeships, with dedicated technical support and a 24-hour service hotline, alongside an e-commerce storefront (sklep.dhpolska.pl) for transparent unit-priced direct purchases. Revenue derives from hardware sales (smoke vents, actuators, control panels, detectors) and professional services (design, installation, warranty service, certified training).

D+H Polska is privately held with no external investment or public listing, and operates with approximately 23 employees. Products carry ISO 9001:2015, CNBOP-PIB, EN 54-20, DEKRA, CE, and UKCA certifications, reflecting the regulatory intensity of the Polish fire safety market. In March 2026 the company received the Forbes Diamond 2026 award in the 5–50 million PLN revenue category, recognizing sustained value growth of at least 10% annually over 2020–2024.
