DHL EXPRESS, the global logistics business, prioritises safety across its operations. Faced with increasing demands, including those tied to TAPA certification, the company sought reliable solutions to protect its infrastructure, employees and customer parcels.
In September, and shortly after the inauguration of a new logistics site in Caen, France, the Hanwha Vision team met with Fabien Vimont, security director for DHL Express.
According to Vimont, Hanwha Vision stood out with a comprehensive and high-performing offer. “Hanwha Vision is clearly a prominent player in the video surveillance sector. Its surveillance cameras provide some of the best features on the market, making the final choice an obvious one for us.”
Hanwha Vision addresses DHL Express’ needs through:
*a wide range of cameras suited for all environments (close range, long distance, day, night, warehouses and offices)
*effective after-sales support, ensuring product availability even during critical periods
*a five-year warranty, duly demonstrating the robustness and durability of the security equipment involved
“This offering and service align perfectly with our needs,” explained Vimont.
Key features
Ky features that enhance DHL Express’ security include:
*bullet cameras capturing every detail
*comprehensive coverage of spaces through multi-sensor cameras
*dome cameras linking video surveillance with scanned barcodes, enabling swift parcel tracking
“We use our CCTV systems for investigations and to address vulnerabilities,” noted Vimont. “For instance, we can isolate an image of a specific parcel.”
DHL Express is TAPA-certified. This an international standard for logistics security. The certification itself mandates complete coverage of both indoor and outdoor spaces to detect any intrusion attempts.
“We comply with TAPA’s requirements,” stated Vimont. “From entering the premises to reaching the building, every individual is detected, which is crucial for us.”
Strengthened security posture
The integration of Hanwha Vision’s security solutions has allowed DHL Express to strengthen its security posture, ensure better traceability of parcels and effectively investigate incidents.
“Hanwha Vision has become an integral part of our security measures,” concluded Vimont. “Through this partnership, DHL Express is able to optimise the safety of its facilities, while in parallel meeting the strictest standards, in turn solidifying its position as a leader in the logistics industry.”
