Magal Awarded $2.3 Million Contract to Protect Correctional Facilities in North America

YEHUD, Israel, April 26, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

Magal Security Systems, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MAGS) announced that it has been awarded a $2.3 million contract for a perimeter and motion detection system. The system will be used to secure correctional facilities in North America and delivery is targeted to be completed in 2018.

Saar Koursh, CEO of Magal, commented: "2018 has started very well for Magal and this order further increases what is already the highest ever level of backlog in Magal's history. This customer chose our technology, particularly because of the performance of our intrusion detection technologies including Omnitrax, our covert outdoor perimeter intrusion detection sensor. More broadly, the very positive momentum we have seen in the past few months gives me confidence that Magal is now well positioned for growth and a strong 2018."
