TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED
TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED is a private limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 00352824, incorporated on 10 May 1939. The company previously traded as TRW Valves Limited (10 May 1939 to 29 November 1994) and as TRW Automotive Systems Limited (29 November 1994 to 17 April 2000) before adopting its current name.
Its registered office was recorded at C/O Begbies Traynor, 8th Floor, One Temple Row, Birmingham, B2 5LG, and its principal activity was classified under UK SIC code 29320, the manufacture of other parts and accessories for motor vehicles, placing it within the automotive components and vehicle-safety-systems sector historically associated with the wider TRW group.
According to Companies House, TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED was dissolved on 4 October 2024, following a final confirmation statement dated 30 April 2024. Eight charges were historically registered against the company, all recorded as satisfied, with none currently outstanding.

Shareholders of TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED
One shareholder was disclosed for TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED as at its last confirmation statement: TRW U.K. Limited (company number 00237206), holding 100% of the single £1 ordinary share on issue. Companies House data shows this holding verified as of 21 September 2026. TRW U.K. Limited was also registered as the company’s person with significant control (PSC), notified on 6 April 2016, with ownership of 75% or more of shares, 75% or more of voting rights, and the right to appoint or remove directors. Two earlier, generic PSC statements (recording that the company had not yet completed its PSC investigation) were withdrawn on 20 April 2016 once TRW U.K. Limited was identified. This is a full disclosure at the immediate-holder level: it reliably identifies the registered shareholder but does not by itself identify any individual beneficial owner.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
No individual has been identified as an ultimate beneficial owner at this level. The sole disclosed shareholder and PSC, TRW U.K. Limited, is itself a corporate entity. TRW U.K. Limited’s own PSC filing, also notified 6 April 2016, names a further corporate holder, ZF Pension Sponsor UK Limited (company number 08305261), as controlling 75% or more of its shares and voting rights. Establishing a natural-person UBO would require tracing the ownership chain beyond this entity, which this review did not extend to.
Data availability
Shareholder and PSC information for TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED is fully disclosed at the immediate-holder level under UK company law. The company was dissolved on 4 October 2024, so this reflects a point-in-time historical record rather than a live holding.

Directors and officers of TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED
Companies House’s live register lists 2 officers not recorded as resigned and 46 resigned officers for TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED — a considerably larger and more current set than the company’s earlier cached filing extract. The two most recent director appointments are Stephen Mark Batterbee (appointed 1 January 2015) and Bal Panaser (appointed 26 October 2022); Companies House records both as British nationals. No company secretary appears among the non-resigned entries, and all disclosed roles are "Director". The most recent resignations on file include Alastair Malcolm McQueen (effective 14 April 2022), Julia Anne Braithwaite (effective 30 October 2021), and Fritz Chittka (effective 3 February 2020). This reflects the register as held immediately before the company’s dissolution on 4 October 2024, rather than an ongoing appointment.
Recent officer changes
- Appointment: Bal Panaser, Director, effective 26 October 2022 (Companies House)
- Resignation: Alastair Malcolm McQueen, Director, effective 14 April 2022 (Companies House)
- Resignation: Julia Anne Braithwaite, Director, effective 30 October 2021 (Companies House)
Data availability
Officer information is fully disclosed by Companies House for UK-registered companies, including appointment and resignation dates. Nationality is officially disclosed for the two most recent directors as British; it was not separately re-confirmed for earlier resigned officers in this review. As the company is now dissolved, "not resigned" reflects the final state of the register rather than an ongoing management function.

Group Structure
Group structure of TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED
TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED was not an independent company. Companies House’s persons-with-significant-control filing identifies TRW U.K. Limited (company number 00237206) as its immediate parent, holding 75% or more of shares and voting rights and the right to appoint or remove directors, notified 6 April 2016. TRW U.K. Limited’s own PSC filing, notified the same date, in turn names ZF Pension Sponsor UK Limited (company number 08305261) as its controlling shareholder on the same 75%-or-more basis. Both relationships are verified directly against each entity’s own live PSC filing rather than inferred from shared branding or company history. The verified chain was not extended beyond these two UK-registered tiers in this review. TRW Automotive, the wider historical group to which this entity belonged, was acquired by ZF Friedrichshafen AG (Germany) in 2015; this is documented industry history rather than a relationship confirmed through TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED’s own PSC filing, and should not be read as an entity-level ownership finding.
Verified corporate relationships
| Entity | Country | Registration number | Relationship | Ownership | Status | Information date |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TRW U.K. Limited | GB | 00237206 | Immediate parent | ≥75% shares/voting rights | Verified via PSC filing | 6 April 2016 |
| ZF Pension Sponsor UK Limited | GB | 08305261 | Indirect parent (parent of TRW U.K. Limited) | ≥75% shares/voting rights | Verified via PSC filing | 6 April 2016 |
Data availability
Corporate-linkage information is partial: the two tiers immediately above TRW SYSTEMS LIMITED are verified directly through Companies House PSC filings, but the chain was not independently re-verified above ZF Pension Sponsor UK Limited in this review, and the entity itself was dissolved on 4 October 2024.
