- 1946 – SCHROTH is founded.
In 1946 SCHROTH the company, was started by Hildegard Schroth (a skilled seamstress) and her engineer husband Carl F Schroth. They had multiple textile contracts with the military government and their protective motorcycle clothing was very successful. Their business starts to grow and in 1953 it moves to its own premises.
- 1954 – SCHROTH develops the first automobile seat belt in Germany.
Carl F. Schroth, an enthusiastic rally driver, identifies the need for a harness belt in motorsports. He “tailors” a seat belt for his co-pilot made from roller blinds and coat buckles. In 1956 Schroth formulates a “Recommendation for increasing the safety of vehicle passengers” to the Ministry of Transport, presenting an analysis of the importance of safety.
- 1997 – SCHROTH enters Formula One.
SCHROTH have since then, delivered harnesses and FHR devices to F1 and other top racing categories worldwide. Today, SCHROTH continues to be a market leader in racing safety and active in the evolution of safety standards.
