Bollard wins Product of the Year Award
Security 2013 Exhibition (which was held from 24-26 July 2013 at the Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre) has announced the winners of its New Product of the Year Award. Australian-owned and -operated Ezi Security Systems claimed first place with its Ezi Elkosta M50 Bollard.
The unique movable bollard is developed to withstand the impact of a 6.8-tonne vehicle travelling at 80 km/h and features an integrated hydraulic drive unit complete with emergency fast operation (EFO) facility. It also boosts a strong and robust construction, as well as a base frame with beam structure for shallow mounted installation. The bollard has been designed to suit high-security applications where shallow installation is the preferred method and ensures minimum maintenance and a long service life.
SALTO was recognised as runner-up in the Product of the Year Award for its cloud-based access control solution, Clay. It is an easy-to-use, secure locking solution designed specifically for SMEs.
The FaceVACS-VideoScan facial recognition technology by Cognitec was named second runner-up. The application detects and identifies persons of interest while computing demographic and behavioural data, supporting security staff, marketing departments and operations management in one application.
