Secure-Globe sees huge biz opportunities in India

We often misinterpret the word “Airport Security” tells Mr. Raphael Khan, CEO of the Sydney-based Secure-Globe Pty Ltd. Although the words bear broad meaning but many times, we end-up with describing the sophisticated electronic gadgets used inside the airport. Have we thought about the security threat that possibly could emerge across the boundary walls, which runs into several kilometres surrounding the airport facility? Asks Mr. Kahn.

Mr. Kahn’s company is into selling of perimeter security, which also mean boundary fencing. This is far superior and very cost-effective than the conventional microwave security system that is generally used by many airports, says Mr. Kahn.

According to him, his perimeter security concept is unique and easy to use, which causes no harm to human beings or grazing animals in the surroundings.

According to Mr. Kahn, his perimeter fencing is less expensive and could cost about $0.5-mn to cover a small airport of around 3-km in size. He feels that building a concrete boundary wall might be more costly than his perimeter security.
