A Fulda-based company with a long tradition in security

The M-Sicherheitsbeteiligungen GmbH at the same address as Mehler Vario System is nothing more than an investment shell for the Fulda-based company. It is a traditional company that emerged from Mehler AG, a textile and clothing group that employed over 4,500 people in its heyday in the 1960s and was one of the largest employers in Fulda. As a result of the crisis in the textile industry, a fundamental restructuring and reorientation took place. Today, Mehler Vario System is a leading European manufacturer of protective vests and protective equipment for vehicles – indispensable for police forces, security personnel and bodyguards. Today the company has around 600 employees, produces at five locations and achieves an annual turnover of more than 100 million euros.

DPE Deutsche Private Equity from Munich has acquired the majority of M-Sicherheitsbeteiligungen from the investment holding company Armira. DPE has been investing as an independent investment company in medium-sized companies in the DACH region since 2007. The investment in Mehler Vario System is intended to financially support the expansion of the market position of the Fulda-based company. DPE currently manages 28 company investments with approximately two billion euros in assets.
