Customer focus leads to success

May 2018 Security Services & Risk Management

It is always refreshing to read an article on a new security company taking the fight to the ‘big guns’ in the industry and coming up trumps. Even more so in a small niche market, ruled for far too long and dominated by these well-established and entrenched organisations.

In the X-ray scanning and metal detection market, a number of larger and more established companies have had to come to terms with a new kid on the block. The creation of XPro Security Solutions has shed a completely different light on the way the industry can boost the speed and tremendously improve their security screening requirements, without compromising on quality.

Starting from humble beginnings, XPro has demonstrated that passion, value for money and personal service are still the backbone of a successful venture. An experienced and dedicated team of industry professionals are the brains (and muscle) behind the formation of a company that truly has the customers’ best interests at heart.

XPro specialise in the supply, delivery, installation, commissioning and maintenance of security X-ray scanners, walk-through and handheld metal detectors, as well as explosive and narcotic trace detection equipment.

As the southern African authorised dealers for the largest global security X-ray manufacturer, Astrophysics in the USA, the company has forged long-term relationships with top blue-chip South African companies. XPro’s passionate approach, unwavering attention to detail, value-for-money and excellent after-sales service has seen it forge partnerships with industry heavy-hitters in airports, cargo operators, hotels, casinos, government buildings and even fully-equipped, containerised security facilities deployed into African countries.

As part of its mission and vision statement, the core approach of XPro always puts the customer first. With many years’ experience in this niche industry, the sales team is ideally poised to offer advice on the best solution to any scanning requirement, from small tunnel sizes for the protection of building entrances, to the more complex and regulated cargo industry.

XPro provides a wide selection of standard and even custom-built machines with a tunnel-size to suit any application and requirement. It also supplies peripherals such as entry and exit roller tables for easy loading and offloading of screened items, and a plethora of advanced software options and hardware configurations.
