Headquartered in Amsterdam, ICTS Europe Holdings B.V. is a leading independent security services provider to airports and airlines. ICTS security screens passengers, baggage and airport staff worldwide on behalf of airports and regulatory agencies. For airlines, the company provides legally required security services. Among the resources ICTS uses in its work are specially trained sniffer dogs and, increasingly, IT-based security products. An ICTS Europe subsidiary provides maritime security services to ports, shipping companies or companies that install submarine cables and pipelines.
With its core business of security services for airports and airlines, ICTS Europe Holdings effectively and efficiently meets the growing security demands in passenger and baggage clearance. ICTS is not only a reputed partner for European airlines, it is also one of the few companies that is recognised by the US civil aviation authority, giving ICTS Europe an outstanding position among US airlines.
Deutsche Beteiligungs AG has supported ICTS in expanding its core business and strengthening its high-margin activities.
Based on its leading position in both the European and the US markets, ICTS possesses considerable potential for value growth in the expansion of its business in the US, eastern Europe and Asia. Moreover, the regional market also holds additional growth opportunities for ICTS. New products launches and the expansion of its maritime security business are additional sources for future growth.
