Gunnebo US Receives Two Top Innovation Awards

Gunnebo US, a sales company of The Gunnebo Group and leading provider of solutions that increase security, improve operational efficiencies, and reduce risks for theft and fraud, today announced it has received two SSI 2017 Top 30 Technology Innovations Awards for its advanced entrance control integrated turnstiles and high-quality, customized pharmacy safes. The award program, presented by Security Sales & Integration magazine, recognizes best-in-class security solutions and technologies for solving customers’ needs, increasing profitability and improving business operations.

Gunnebo’s OptiStile 720 Turnstile combines FST Biometrics’ In Motion Identification and AMAG Technology’s Symmetry Access Control to deliver a best-of-breed solution to customers requiring a higher level of identity verification, speed of entry, and high-end aesthetics. The uniquely integrated, flexible turnstile solution, built with solid engineering and results-driven entrance controls, provides high reliability, maximum performance and a non-invasive passage experience through the turnstile lane for customers across a wide range of environments, from mass rapid transit systems and airports to multi-tenant office buildings and recreational centers.

As chain and independent U.S. pharmacies look for ways to combat the national opioid epidemic, Gunnebo launched a new line of Hamilton Pharmacy Safes to assist pharmacy retailers with their unique position at the frontline of healthcare. The solid steel pharmacy safes come with SecuRam ProLogic L22 UL-rated locks, slide out shelves and a compact footprint to store schedule 2 & 3 inventories safely and securely, and user specific entry audit trails to manage operations efficiently and effectively. For added security, the safes provide two management codes, 28 user codes and a lock mechanism that cycles 5,000 times, empowering pharmacists to safeguard against theft and fraud, while protecting customers and employees across retail operations.

“Creating business value and building a safer future is integral to Gunnebo’s history. As a global supplier of security products, services and solutions, we understand the importance of invention and smart security in this rapidly changing world,” said Daniel Schroeder, President, Gunnebo Americas Region. “Technology is central to our innovation and we will continue to expand our security capabilities to create world-class solutions to better serve our customers. We are extremely proud to receive this SSI honor and congratulate our Entrance Control and Hamilton Security team members for this distinguished industry recognition.”

The Top 30 Technology Innovations Awards was designed and developed by EH Publishing’s technology and business security publication, Security Sales & Integration (SSI). Launched over a decade ago, the innovations list is compiled by SSI’s technical authorities who objectively survey the security landscape throughout the year and select the top 30 solutions and technology innovations for recognition of excellence.

With worldwide headquarters in Gothenburg, Sweden, Gunnebo has sales companies in 32 countries across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific, and the Americas. Gunnebo is listed on the Swedish Stock Exchange.
