ZF Active Safety GmbH is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Germany under HRB 79 Koblenz, and its current status with Handelsregister (Commercial Register) is active. Its registered address on file is Koblenz, Germany. 2 shareholders are on record for ZF Active Safety 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 15 October 2026.

Shareholders

2

Two shareholders are currently on record for ZF Active Safety GmbH, held on the Gesellschafterliste (shareholder list), filed under §40 of the GmbHG.

The largest of these is TRW Deutschland Holding GmbH, holding 94.9% — a majority holding — followed by TRW Automotive Holding GmbH & Co KG at 5.1%.

Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Officers

The Geschäftsführer (managing director) of ZF Active Safety GmbH currently on record is Dirk Schulte; five officers are currently on record for ZF Active Safety GmbH, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register).

The register reports 25 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

Management authority at ZF Active Safety 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

ZF Active Safety GmbH sits 3 levels below its ultimate parent, Zeppelin-Stiftung, registered in Germany. 2 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 2 jurisdictions. Immediately above ZF Active Safety GmbH is TRW Deutschland Holding GmbH, holding 94.9% as filed in ZF Active Safety GmbH's own shareholder record with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Zeppelin-Stiftung 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 2 subsidiaries span Germany, Sweden 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.
