The company was founded in 1858 by Louis Bode and Heinrich Troue in Hanover as Bode & Troue . It was the first German special factory for the production of armored boxes, as well as fire-proof and burglar-proof steel chambers. In 1924 this company merged with the Berliner Panzer AG, founded in 1898, to form Bode-Panzer AG . Panzer AG built the vault of the Berlin Coin Cabinet between 1900 and 1904 . Between 1926 and 1935, Bode-Panzer AG was one of the innovative companies in the field of security technology. In 1929 a new type of alarm system was brought onto the market. The principle of the light barrier with UV rays was used for the first time .

In November 1946, the company's workforce in Hanover went on strike for 23 days. The aim of the strike was to enforce participation, the strike was organized by Otto Brenner . It was the first strike in Germany after the Second World War .

In 1976 the Bode family sold the company to the French Fichet-Bauche group. In 1995 the holding company Berliner Elektro Holding (renamed AdCapital in 2000) became the sole owner of the company with a turnover of 120 million marks at that time. By 1998, production was completely relocated from Hanover to Rajhrad in the Czech Republic. In 2001 the now loss-making company was sold by AdCapital in a management buy-out. In 2004 it was sold on to the current owner, the entrepreneur Frank Steinhardt. Today Bode-Panzer is again innovative and successful internationally.
