Hactl improves security with new vehicles

Hong Kong Air Cargo Terminals Limited (Hactl) enhanced its security operations with the introduction of two electric vehicles to enable security staff to increase the frequency of patrols, and respond to incidents more quickly.

Security for the Hactl SuperTerminal 1 facility – the largest single cargo terminal in the world – involves some 260 staff deployed in various duties, including perimeter and premises patrols and guarding, and cargo scanning.

The vehicles are now used around the clock.

“We continue to invest in improving the robustness of all Hactl operations, including the vital area of security,” Andrew Sin, Hactl head of security, said. “The introduction of our mobile patrol vehicles has significantly increased our visible security presence throughout SuperTerminal1. We are making more efficient use of our patrol staff, speeding incident response and even improving our efficiency in dealing with related matters such as clamping of illegally parked vehicles.”
