June 2012

Texecom is delighted that installers across the UK have chosen to award the Premier Elite series ‘Intruder Alarm Product 2012’. The PSI Premier awards are special in that professional security installers, the most important people when it comes to product selection and system design, decide on the most deserving innovations.

Andy Clutton, Editor PSI magazine, commented: “Texecom were again successful at the PSI Premier Awards in 2012 proving that their “security has evolved” campaign has resonated with the industry. As one of the first companies to supply systems that conform to PD6662:2010 coupled with a re-branding of their product portfolio it looks like 2012 will be a big year for Texecom”.

The Premier Elite series of products is Texecom’s most advanced security offering. These products are designed to protect high value installations where design flexibility, product performance and integrated solutions are a priority. 

The range includes control panels, keypads, motion detectors, external sounders and wireless devices featuring Ricochet mesh technology. 

Over the past few months Texecom has been introducing new and enhanced product offerings to coincide with the new PD6662:2010 regulatory requirements.
