Our Role Within This Project

To mention the sheer scale of the project, it began in the summer of 2023, involving B&K Hybrid Solutions delivering approximately 800 tonnes of structural steelwork for Glass Systems, a leading manufacturer of insulated glass units in the UK.

To ensure the security and progress of the 30-acre site, we at VIS Systems implemented a range of advanced security technologies. 

Solar towers were strategically placed around the site to provide continuous surveillance, powered by renewable energy. These towers, equipped with high-definition cameras, ensured that all activities on-site were monitored around the clock, contributing to the safety and security of the project.

Not only that, but we thought it would be important to deploy time-lapse cameras to capture the construction process in real-time.

These time-lapse recordings allowed stakeholders to track the progress of the build, providing visual documentation from ground-breaking to completion. This not only helped in maintaining transparency but also in identifying and addressing any potential issues promptly.

CCTV systems were also installed throughout the site, offering an additional layer of security. 

Why Choose Us

The comprehensive surveillance provided by VIS Systems helped deter unauthorised access and ensured the smooth operation of the project, which is set to become a vital addition to Glass Systems’ operations in the UK.

The collaboration between VIS Systems, B&K Hybrid Solutions, and Bowmer and Kirkland Ltd. exemplified the importance of integrating cutting-edge security measures into large-scale industrial projects.

With the new facility poised to create 100 new jobs and safeguard 500 existing ones in the Port Talbot area, the security solutions provided by us at VIS Systems played a pivotal role in the successful and secure development of this significant manufacturing hub.
