How we can help

Our rapidly deployable Safer POD® devices have been installed in leading retail environments in the UK, from shopping centres to supermarkets. Our solutions are utilised by police forces as an effective deterrent against anti-social behaviour and shoplifting.

Theft prevention

Strategically positioned in known crime hotspots, our solutions offer a flexible and visible deterrent.

Vandalism prevention

Ideal for rapid deployment in busy urban or tricky remote environments.

Fire detection

Visual verification of fire risks in shop spaces can reduce liability costs and speed up an on-site response.

Flood monitoring

Disable water supply as soon as flooding is detected, preventing significant structural damage and financial loss.
