Launch of New Anti-Burglary Products
Eruma plc, the AIM traded specialist provider of counter terrorism and burglary protection products and emergency lighting has developed and launched two new fully proprietary products aimed at the retail and industrial / warehousing markets, to complement its existing security product offerings.
The first product, the Concertina Secur™, has been developed to address the needs of clients who require unencumbered access to windows and doorways in addition to the unrivalled security benefits that the Security Blinds system offers. The new product utilises a continuous hinge system and retracts into a limited space offering greater versatility for prospective clients. The Company has developed this product to meet the particular needs of the retail sector where clients need out of hours protection from attack via shop windows.
In addition, the Company has developed a new retractable gate designed to increase the security of premises that utilise roller shutters, such as those commonly deployed at warehouses and delivery depots to allow access for larger vehicles. The anchored gates developed by Security Blinds, are designed to resist ram-raid attacks and prevent shutters from being forced open by jacks or breached by angle grinders, both common methods employed by thieves targeting such buildings. Target markets for this product include businesses such as building, plumbing and DIY outlets. The Company is currently in talks with a number of major distribution companies.
Eruma Business Development Director, Alan Davis said, “I am delighted that our investment into research and development has resulted in these new products. The Secur™ Concertina blind complements our existing Security Blinds products, offering greater versatility and choice to our customers, without compromising the high levels of security on which we pride ourselves.
“The development of the anti-ram retractable gate is particularly exciting for the Company. The product will open up an entirely new target market, offering increased protection for any business operating warehouses vulnerable to ram-raid attack from large vehicles. Potential target markets include supermarket warehouses and delivery companies and we have already received a number of enquiries from businesses operating such premises.”
