Biotech and pharmaceutical security

Protect your teams, laboratories, research activities and sensitive facilities.

How can you protect laboratories and pharmaceutical facilities?

Biotechnology companies, research laboratories, pharmaceutical manufacturers and pharmacies work in environments where protecting people, equipment and restricted areas is essential. An appropriate approach combines access control, intrusion detection, video surveillance and alarm management while considering internal procedures and applicable regulatory requirements.

Security tailored to biotech and pharmaceutical operations

Protecting valuable laboratory equipment, research information, raw materials and medicines calls for solutions designed around each site's risks. Protectas Technology can assess requirements and design integrated systems covering differentiated laboratory access, security at critical points, stock protection and incident handling. The selected systems should support staff workflows, quality procedures and operational constraints.

Monitor laboratories, entrances and sensitive areas

Your priorities:

  • Identify unusual access to research or storage areas promptly
  • Safeguard high-value laboratory equipment and facilities
  • Monitor entrances, loading zones and appropriate shared areas
  • Obtain video evidence to verify alarms or review incidents
  • Improve security without systematically monitoring employees

Our approach:

  • Risk-based video surveillance with recordings accessible only to authorised personnel and retention consistent with applicable privacy rules
  • Integration of video and alarms, where supported, for event verification and appropriate response procedures

Prevent intrusions and protect valuable assets

Your priorities:

  • Detect attempted intrusion into laboratories, warehouses and technical rooms
  • Protect medicine inventories, samples and sensitive equipment outside operating hours
  • Receive timely notifications when alarms need attention

Our approach:

  • Door and motion sensors selected for the site's layout and operating conditions
  • Alerting devices suited to assessed risks and response procedures
  • Alarm transmission to a monitoring centre when included in the chosen service
  • Optional connection with video surveillance to verify events and support the appropriate response

Control entry to laboratories and restricted areas

Your priorities:

  • Give scientists, employees, contractors and visitors appropriate levels of access
  • Protect research rooms, production areas, secure stores and sensitive records

Our approach:

  • Cards, readers and individual access rights, including time-based permissions where appropriate, designed around site security and safe evacuation needs

Support staff safety in demanding environments

Your priorities:

  • Help people working alone in laboratories or outside normal hours request assistance
  • Make it easier to communicate alerts between operational areas and site management

Our approach:

  • Lone-worker protection and emergency call devices suited to the work being carried out
  • Communication and incident-alert processes aligned with site emergency plans and procedures
