Rhenus Automotive Systems GmbH
Rhenus Automotive Systems GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 11990 Essen, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. Its registered address on file is Essen, Germany. 2 shareholders are on record for Rhenus Automotive Systems GmbH, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Handelsregister (Commercial Register) and was last updated on 6 October 2026.

The largest of these is Rhenus Automotive SE, holding 94% — a majority holding — followed by Rhenus Automotive SE at 6%.

Officers
5
Four of the 5 officer records shown for Rhenus Automotive Systems GmbH are current appointments, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Marcus Ewig (appointed 2017-10-09) and Christoph Ullbrich (appointed 2020-08-24) both serve as Geschäftsführer (managing director); Manfred Brüning (appointed 2014-03-25) and Marek Szczygiel (appointed 2017-07-19) both serve as Officer. The remaining 1 record shown (Bernd Gräff) is a former appointment that has since been resigned.
The register reports 9 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.
Management authority at Rhenus Automotive Systems GmbH sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.
The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
Group Structure
Rhenus Automotive Systems GmbH sits 3 levels below its ultimate parent, Rethmann SE & Co. KG, registered in Germany. 10 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 3 jurisdictions. Immediately above Rhenus Automotive Systems GmbH is Rhenus Automotive SE, holding 100% as filed in Rhenus Automotive Systems GmbH's own shareholder record with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Rethmann SE & Co. KG sits further up the chain, a link derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions rather than stated in a single document. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.
Those 10 subsidiaries span Germany, Belgium, Spain jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Four of the 10 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
