Desu Systems B.V., a global leader in flame and gas detection and suppression distribution, is celebrating its 20th anniversary with the launch of a new industry initiative, “20 Insights from 20 Years.” The campaign showcases key lessons, innovations, and field experience gained through two decades of collaboration and advancement within the industrial safety sector.
Over the past twenty years, Desu Systems has earned a reputation as a trusted technical partner to safety professionals in more than 60 countries. The company distributes and supports world-class brands such as Spectrex, Buckeye Fire, Emerson Measurement Solutions, Sensia, and Hansentek, delivering technologies that protect thousands of critical facilities — including refineries, offshore substations, hydrogen plants, food processing sites, and aviation hangars.
Reflecting on the company’s journey, founder Ronald Verkroost stated that Desu Systems was established in 2005 with a vision to operate differently — faster, more flexibly, and with complete focus on customer needs. “Twenty years later, we’ve proven that trusted relationships and technical excellence are what drive real safety,” Verkroost said. “This anniversary is about giving back — sharing what we’ve learned to help others raise their standards of protection.”
The “20 Insights from 20 Years” campaign translates Desu Systems’ extensive field experience into practical lessons on detection, prevention, and performance reliability. The initiative is presented through a dedicated anniversary hub, which features a visual timeline of the company’s evolution, customer success stories, and milestones in technological progress.
According to Emile Hippe, CEO of Desu Systems, the industrial safety landscape continues to evolve rapidly. “Our industry is constantly advancing — smarter sensors, predictive data, fewer false alarms,” Hippe noted. “What doesn’t change is our mission: to guide safety professionals toward the best-fit solutions for their environments. We’re proud to stand behind the technologies that keep people, assets, and operations safe every day.”
Desu Systems’ reputation for excellence is reinforced by testimonials from global partners.
Emil Cohen of Emerson Measurement Solutions commended the company’s “unmatched expertise in flame and gas solutions” and its “dedication to partner success.”
Jason Sickenberger of Buckeye Fire highlighted Desu’s “professionalism, integrity, and operational excellence.”

Since its founding in the Netherlands in 2005, Desu Systems has grown from a small local operation into the world’s largest distributor of flame detection systems. Combining deep technical knowledge with exceptional customer support, the company continues to play a vital role in advancing global safety infrastructure.
