WAGNER Group GmbH is continuing to expand its operations in North America.

With the appointment of Dr. Kai Beckhaus as the new Managing Director of WAGNER Fire Safety Canada Ltd., based in Burlington (Ontario, Canada), the company has chosen a logistics expert who has already been responsible for WAGNER Fire Safety, Inc., the US subsidiary located in the Greater Chicago area, for nearly two years.

WAGNER’s fire protection services

Beckhaus brings solid market access in US and Canada, along with a well-established local network

Dr. Beckhaus brings solid market access in both the US and Canada, along with a well-established local network. In his new role, he will continue to strengthen WAGNER’s team on the ground and activate synergies across the North American continent.

This will provide market participants in the US and Canada with even more direct access to WAGNER’s fire protection systems and services, enabling them to fully benefit from the company’s solutions.

Key factor in effective fire protection 

I look forward to working with the team in Canada to further develop the market for our high-performance fire protection solutions,” says Dr. Kai Beckhaus.

In particular, the principle of active fire prevention through oxygen reduction offers great potential to make applications such as logistics facilities and archives even safer here as well–safeguarding assets, supply chains, and operational continuity. Additionally, we support our Canadian customers with our aspirating smoke detectors for early fire detection. These systems are a key factor in effective fire protection for the emerging field of data centers, as well as many other industries.”
