Naftor

What Naftor does

Naftor Sp. z o.o. is a Polish B2B security services provider founded in 2004 as a spin-off from Naftobazy Sp. z o.o. (now Operator Logistyczny Paliw Płynnych) and currently operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of PERN Capital Group (PERN S.A.), Poland's state-owned strategic fuel logistics operator. The company delivers integrated physical and technical security solutions on a 24/7 nationwide basis, targeting critical infrastructure operators (notably PERN's fuel storage bases), government and state institutions, law enforcement/military entities, and select commercial clients. Its core offerings combine Specialized Armed Security Formations (SUFO) for physical protection of persons and property with integrated technical security systems — CCTV with thermal imaging and video analytics, access control with time-and-attendance, intrusion detection, perimeter protection (infrared barriers, fiber-optic, vibration, microwave), fire detection and suppression, and building automation. Additional product lines include counter-UAS/anti-drone systems for airspace protection, UAV-based patrol monitoring for linear infrastructure and hard-to-reach terrain, a dedicated training center (Centrum Szkolenia Naftor) staffed by instructors from military special forces, Police, and intelligence services, and trading of military/police equipment under an MSW concession. Ancillary recurring services cover cleaning and green-area maintenance.

The business operates a hybrid revenue model: subscription-style recurring revenue from physical security guarding, cleaning, and green-area maintenance contracts; project-based professional services revenue from technical security system design, installation, and maintenance; professional services revenue from the training division; and hardware resale margin from special equipment trading. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with customized proposals, supplemented by participation in public tenders (przetargi) for government contracts. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company holds rare first-degree industrial security certificates from Poland's Internal Security Agency (ABW) covering national TAJNE, NATO SECRET, EU SECRET, and ESA SECRET classifications, alongside ISO 9001:2015, ISO 22301:2019, AQAP 2110:2016 (NATO quality assurance), and WSK Internal Control System certifications, all renewed in a June 2024 audit. Naftor maintains a registered office in Rasztów (Klembów), Masovia region, and central offices in Warsaw (ul. Wał Miedzeszyński 630), operating across Poland through direct engagement with large enterprise and government clients rather than retail or self-service channels.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Allied Universal (formerly G4S): Global security services firm (formed via G4S acquisition) with extensive Polish footprint providing manned guarding, security systems, and risk management. Comparable in physical-security service delivery but offers a much broader portfolio without Naftor's specialized critical-infrastructure/C-UAS positioning.
• ISS A/S: Danish facility services group that bundles security (guarding, access control, surveillance) with cleaning and property services for enterprise and public-sector clients across Europe. Overlaps directly with Naftor's combined security + cleaning + green-area maintenance offering but operates as a broad incumbent across many geographies.
• Securitas AB: Swedish-headquartered global security services leader with significant Polish operations delivering physical guarding, electronic security, and risk consulting. Overlaps with Naftor in physical and technical security but operates across many geographies and verticals rather than specializing in critical infrastructure and C-UAS.
• Thales Group: French aerospace and defense prime with a large digital-identity, security, and counter-UAS portfolio serving defense, government, and critical-infrastructure customers in Europe. Overlaps with Naftor on the integrated physical/technical/C-UAS side and could compete for the same high-security Polish and NATO contracts.

Direct peers

• DroneShield: Australia/US-listed specialist in counter-UAS detection and defeat hardware (RF sensors, radar, jammers, kinetic defeat) sold to defense, government, and critical-infrastructure customers globally. Most directly comparable to Naftor's anti-drone systems line — Naftor is the systems integrator, DroneShield is a dedicated C-UAS product vendor competing for the same procurement budgets.
• Dedrone: US/German counter-UAS detection platform provider offering sensors, software, and integrated airspace awareness for defense, government, and critical-infrastructure customers. Direct competitor and potential partner to Naftor's C-UAS capability, offering best-of-breed detection that could displace or supplement Naftor's integrated offering.
• Blighter Surveillance Systems: UK specialist in radar-based ground and drone-detection surveillance sold to defense, border, and critical-infrastructure operators. Directly comparable to Naftor's anti-drone and perimeter-surveillance technical stack, with a deep product focus that Naftor lacks.
• Seris Konsalnet: One of the largest Polish private security services groups offering physical guarding, technical security systems, and monitoring across Poland. Directly comparable to Naftor in scope (armed and unarmed security, technical installations, 24/7 nationwide service) and target market (enterprise and government clients), though without the same defense-clearance and C-UAS positioning.
• Control Risks: UK-headquartered global risk consultancy offering security consulting, training, and embedded advisory services to corporate and government clients. Directly comparable to Naftor's Centrum Szkolenia Naftor in specialized security training and advisory, though operating globally rather than focused on Poland.

Others

• Rohde & Schwarz: German electronics group supplying security-scanning, communications-intelligence, and spectrum-monitoring equipment to defense, government, and critical-infrastructure buyers. Functions as an enabling technology supplier rather than a direct security-services competitor, but its products (RF scanners, spectrum analyzers) underpin C-UAS and special-equipment offerings similar to Naftor's.
