R. Stahl is one of the largest suppliers of explosion-proof products and systems for potentially explosive atmospheres. Its core business is the development and manufacture of electronic components such as lights, control boxes and CCTV systems that meet certain safety standards and can therefore be used in areas with an increased risk of explosion. These primarily include the oil and gas industry as well as the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. With a market share of around 7%, R. Stahl is the third-largest player worldwide, with the most important sales market being Europe and, in particular, Germany, which accounts for around 25% of total sales. A current driver is the expansion of European LNG imports from the USA and Qatar, which are intended to compensate for the lack of natural gas imports from Russia. With a market share of over 50% in LNG shipping, R. Stahl is ideally positioned to benefit from this trend.
