Our Danish beginnings

In 2004, CAVIUS founder Glenn Hojmose left his job as an industrial designer in Denmark to start his lifelong pursuit of the most advanced, aesthetically pleasing alarms – through a combination of state of the art electronics and superior product design. He was quickly joined by a world-class team of designers, engineers, researchers and project managers, who together bring the CAVIUS product range to life.

Environmental Policy

As a Danish company, CAVIUS recognises our duty to minimise our environmental footprint as much as possible and supply our customers with safe, long-lasting products.

That’s why we only produce photoelectric smoke alarms, minimise our material wastage and conserve the use of energy, water, and paper at our factories and offices. All our packaging is made from recycled cardboard and PE/PET plastic and our full product range undergoes annual environmental testing (RoHS, REACH etc) by highly-regarded international institutions.
