Chubb is a name that everyone associates with security. Its companies supply all manner of bespoke security solutions in a multitude of applications around the world. The award of the contract to supply the baggage screening equipment and walkthrough metal detectors at Brisbane airport is the latest of many Chubb contracts covering the security of airports all over the world. Indeed, most of the airports in Australia are guarded and patrolled by the company’s guarding services and many have its security equipment installed, whether it is CCTV systems, access control, intruder systems, fire detection or firefighting equipment.

In addition, Chubb’s sister company National Foam and Sides, supplies a wide range of airport firefighting vehicles and in Hong Kong, Guardforce, another sister company, supplied all the fire protection equipment for the new international airport.

Chubb has a total capability across the entire spectrum of security and fire equipment. All of its electronic fire and security systems are capable of being remote monitored, 24 hours a day, with instant response in the event of an incident, either by alerting local emergency services or providing manned response from the company’s own guarding firms.
