Stöbich Fire Protection Systems , a manufacturer of smoke and fire protection systems, has announced it is expanding its operations in Dorchester County. The company’s $2.53 million investment will create 33 jobs.
Founded in 1980, Stöbich produces multiple structural and technical fire protection products including curtains, closures, gates and controls. The German company is represented in more than 50 countries worldwide.
Stöbich is expanding its existing facility, located at 5301 Indigo Fields Blvd. in North Charleston, to support the U.S. manufacturing and assembly of the GX Smoke Curtain. Previously built in Germany, the curtain is a code-driven life safety system designed to contain smoke at elevator openings and other critical building junctures.
“The U.S. market is an important part of Stöbich’s long-term growth strategy, and we see significant potential to further expand our presence here," said Stöbich Management Board Spokesman Alexander Dolipski. "We are very pleased with the strong support and positive business environment we have experienced in South Carolina, which provides an excellent foundation for strengthening our local operations, expanding manufacturing capabilities and creating new jobs in the region.”
Operations are expected to be online in September 2026.
