North East firm keeps an eye on security

AN EXPANDING North East based security firm is set to save the construction industry thousands of pounds by increasing its stock of state-of-the-art surveillance systems.

Phoenix Eye has announced that it is doubling its investment into V-Ceptor mobile camera units to £500,000, in a bid to offer its construction clients the best possible site protection and theft deterrent.

The firm is using the new technology on 30 construction sites across the North of England ranging from new homes developments to smaller scale renovation sites.

Construction industry theft is reported to produce losses of up to £1 billion per year in the UK alone.

Phoenix Eye director Neill Winch said: “It is more imperative than ever that construction firms think seriously about looking after their own site security.

“By making this investment we are able to offer our construction clients an assurance that their equipment and resources are being watched over by the most cutting edge surveillance technology which also doubles as a big visual deterrent for would-be intruders.

Phoenix believe that the V-ceptor units are offering an increasingly cost effective way for construction companies to limit the risks of vandalism and theft.
