Zaun Group on diplomatic mission
A fictional embassy secured by an integrated
perimeter protection solution from the Zaun
Group was the stand-out highlight of the 2016
Security & Policing (S&P) show.
The embassy mock-up was constructed with
imput from the Metropolitan Police’s Security
Liaison Unit and Parliamentary and Diplomatic
Protection, which advises on the protection of
embassies and other diplomatic missions.
Show visitors raved about the mock-up,
designed to give a realistic impression of the
many security elements deployed to protect
diplomats and the buildings that they use.
Staff staged mock scenarios including a full
security lock-down to make the live experience
even more realistic at the annual UK Government
security show at the FIVE venue in Farnborough
from 8 – 10 March.
It is the UK’s only secure event for police,
law enforcement and security professionals
tasked with security, civil protection and
national resilience.
The Zaun Group pitched its integrated
high security perimeter systems from a
combined stand (B47) that housed a working
demonstration including an SR2 rated
gate, electric fencing, PIDs, CCTV and video
analytics, prison mesh and post systems with
razor coil toppings.
But the centrepiece embassy mock-up
demonstrated far more coherently the integrated
approach the group can uniquely offer, with both
Perimeter Security Suppliers Association verified
product and installation.
The comprehensive solution included Zaun’s
most intruder-resistant fencing, ArmaWeave, FST
prison toppings from Binns, electric fencing and
PIDs fromHarper Chalice and multi-megapixel
and HD video evidence from a series of HD CCTV
cameras recorded and managed by EyeLynx’s
SharpView intelligent video surveillance system.
Over 350 companies exhibited at S&P,
showcasing world leading technologies,
products and solutions to police services,
government departments, organisations and
agencies from the UK and overseas.
Its global influence and 30-year heritage
has made the event a cornerstone of
the security calendar, bringing together
international professionals and experts
from Government, law enforcement, police
services, CNI and Industry in a crucible of
shared knowledge and experience.
