The Founder

In 1986, Edgar Zollinger introduced Europe’s first commercially operated armoured protection vehicle — a Mercedes-Benz 560 SEL built to withstand assault rifles and hand grenades.
 

This marked the beginning of a Europe-wide career in personal protection and high-security transportation.

At the time, Europe was shaped by terrorism — including the Red Army Fraction (RAF), Brigate Rosse, ETA and IRA.
Demand for professional protection and highly trained drivers was critical. Edgar Zollinger trained internationally at Mercedes-Benz and the Scotty School of Defensive Driving (USA), refining his expertise at the highest level.
 

Over the following two decades, he operated across Europe, providing protection and secure transport for heads of state, government officials, royal families and senior figures in private industry. From 1986 to 2002, he served the World Economic Forum in Davos — as the only operator with an armoured limousine.
 

In 1994, Mercedes-Benz Stuttgart recognized him as Europe’s top security driver, winning an elite competition against EU state chauffeurs and international anti-terror units.

Security is not optional. Responsibility is not negotiable.
