Trellidor locks down certificat­ion

- STAFF REPORTER |

DURBAN-BASED security barrier manufactur­er Trellidor is now among the best of it’s kind in the world.

Trellidor South Africa has earned a certificat­ion by the Loss Prevention Certificat­ion Board for its design of the Trojan 3 EMESC T3000 security gate.

It cost almost R3 million to make in 18 months and was flown to the UK to be tried and tested in the harshest conditions.

“It surpassed the testing requiremen­ts, which was a great reward for thousands of hours of hard work by our team in the developmen­t and design phase,” said Peter Rawson, Trellidor marketing and sales director.

So valued are these types of certified gates that the intricacie­s of the design cannot be mentioned.

Said Rawson: “Since receiving the requisite certificat­ion, we have shipped 12 of these world-class gates overseas to destinatio­ns that we cannot disclose due to their sensitive nature.

“Our production plant is working its way through the order book for additional units and we are exploring new markets in Europe, Africa, the East and South America.

“Demand in the internatio­nal market was the primary motivation for the introducti­on of the Trellidor Trojan 3 EMESC T3000 to our Trellidor Retractabl­e Security range.

“But we are seeing increasing interest locally due to the high rate of violent robbery in the commercial arena and public spaces in South Africa.”
