Chubbsafes celebrates 190 years

Issue 3 2025 News & Events, Security Services & Risk Management

Chubbsafes marks its 190th anniversary in 2025. Since its first safe patented in 1835, Chubbsafes has become synonymous with strength, dependability, and innovation, protecting valuables for generations.

For nearly two centuries, Chubbsafes has stood as a symbol of reliability and craftsmanship. Its rich history includes landmark innovations like the first patented resistant safe and leading materials such as Torch and Drill Resistant (TDR) barriers. These achievements underscore the brand’s commitment to protecting valuables in an ever-evolving world.

“This year-long campaign is more than just a celebration. It is a tribute to Chubbsafes’ legacy of reliability and excellence,” said Chanisa Wallace, head of marketing and communication at Gunnebo Safe Storage. “For nearly 200 years, we have been trusted by customers worldwide. This milestone is an opportunity to honour our craftsmanship and innovation, while looking ahead to the future we are shaping together with our teams, partners, and customers.”

A highlight of the anniversary celebrations is the launch of the Chubbsafes 1835, a limited edition 190th-anniversary collector’s safe. Combining robust protection with exquisite craftsmanship, only 190 individually numbered units have been produced, making it a true piece of history.

Mark Brookes, global product & standards director at Gunnebo Safe Storage, added, “The Chubbsafes 1835 encapsulates everything we stand for – a product that represents the culmination of almost two centuries of refinement and commitment to excellence. It is not just a safe, but a piece of history, built to last and symbolising the standards we uphold for the future.”
