GIT-Interview with Francisco Fuster about perimeter security products of Bunker Security

GIT-Interview with Francisco Fuster about perimeter security products of Bunker Security. Perimeter security is a market seemingly without a growth limit and, with continually rising levels of breaking and entering, an increasingly important element of any comprehensive building or area security system. Matthias Erler of GIT SECURITY spoke to Francisco Fuster of Bunker Security about their products that provide an early warning of trouble.

GIT SECURITY: Mr. Fuster, could you give our readers an impression of the range of products and solutions that your company is offering?

F. Fuster: Bunker is specialized in the manufacturing of enclosures in the form of towers and garden lamps that are fitted with active photoelectric beam sensors. Our policy is to keep large stock levels that allow us both to meet customer orders immediately and also to be flexible to the demands of customized solutions for specific projects.

Our clientele have freedom of choice to either mount their preferred photoelectric beam sensors inside our beam towers or to choose a completely integrated beam tower system equipped with the QBT200m Quad Beam sensors. The company is therefore oriented to the perimeter protection niche by providing solutions that allow our partners to enhance their business opportunities as well as providing installers with practical and effective products.

What are the main advantages and specialties of your systems?

F. Fuster: Perimeter protection systems can often consist of expensive and laborious installations. Bunker’s beam towers on the other hand are designed to be deployed rapidly. They have proven to be an ideal alternative for the protection of areas in which the emphasis is placed on detecting intruders before they get inside the area to protect, as opposed to systems, which set off an alarm only when intruders are already inside.

The key here is that there is a longer time available for security guards, police and homeowners to respond whenever an intrusion occurs as we are concentrating right at the primary line of defense. The system can, for instance, even be activated during the day while people are at home or at work, avoiding the nuisance of alarms resulting from people’s movement inside a house, a factory or other building while still protecting the perimeter.

The beam towers camouflage the number and position of the infrared beams fixed inside, making it impossible for the intruder to locate them. The easy integration in any given environment where these enclosures are installed helps to provide a discreet but elegant solution ideal for protecting perimeters around villas, warehouses, oil compounds, airports and similar places.

Bunker’s model PT double sided beam tower can also be equipped with a special top (PT-LUX) that provides illumination, making its presence even more discreet in areas where aesthetics are highly important. The ability to fix CCTV cameras on top of the PT beam tower (PT-CCTV) adds even more value as it enables monitoring of the installation as well as being able to record and capture images of any attempted theft that may take place.

Who are your main customers – in which industry sectors and markets are your major activities?

F. Fuster: Bunker’s commercial emphasis lies in creating strong bonds with renowned security distributors and wholesalers that are oriented towards the anti-intrusion sector. Distributors, system integrators and installers who concentrate on outdoor perimeter protection represent the most demanding share of this particular market.

In which countries are your systems available?

F. Fuster: The situation is constantly changing as projects that call for these solutions come from countries all around the globe. The Middle East has proven to be an emerging market for such security systems, and it is also worth mentioning the increasing demand coming from Asian countries.

Could you describe some typical applications of your security products?

F. Fuster: Solar panel enclaves that have been so popular over the last 2 years across Mediterranean countries have emerged as demanding sites where good perimeter protection is required. The expensive equipment employed in solar panels arrays, together with the fact that these are mostly unattended, calls for a security system that can detect real intrusions and avoid false alarms originated by other security systems that are not as exact as infrared detection.

How is the distribution of your products organized? Where will your potential customers find your security products and solutions?

F. Fuster: Major distributors have access to Bunker’s range. We are proud to say that our product range can already be found in the websites and catalogues of leading security distributors in several countries around the world.
