Geobrugg Korea joins Geobrugg AG

17 Mayo 2023

After 30 years of activity in South Korea, Geobrugg Korea will become part of the Geobrugg Group.

Geobrugg has been active in South Korea for more than 30 years. Despite its name, Geobrugg Korea has been an independent company until now.  

With the retirement of Kwang Won Suh, Geobrugg integrated Geobrugg Korea. Contracts were signed on May 16, 2023. Seung Il Choi, already Executive Managing Director, will lead Geobrugg Korea and the existing team. The organization will remain the same and focus on the South Korean market for protection systems. 

 

Seung Il Choi, Executive Managing Director Geobrugg Korea:

«Geobrugg, as a global company, drives innovation and industry standards for safety solutions worldwide and will continue to do so in Korea. In terms of know-how and technical support, we will profit from Geobrugg’s experience. We look forward to further growth. We will continue in Geobrugg’s spirit of research and excellence and combine it with our local strength, technical experience and our history in South Korea.»

Andrea Roth, CEO Geobrugg AG:

«We are grateful that Kwang Won Suh made Geobrugg a strong brand in South Korea. Seung Il Choi, Executive Managing Director, will continue his work. Geobrugg Korea is part of the global Geobrugg family. At the same time, Geobrugg Korea will remain a company with strong local roots and a long experience in Korean natural hazard protection.»
