EAS SECURITY SYSTEM

Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) is recognised as the most dynamic and effective anti-theft technology on the market. It has become increasingly popular over the last decade, particularly in the retail industry where over a million EAS systems are currently operating.

WHAT IS THE BEST EAS SYSTEM FOR MY BUSINESS?

Southern Cross Electronic Security offers a broad range of technologies (AM, RF and RFID) including tags and labels, deactivators and detachers, video solutions, source tagging solutions, sensors, and software allowing you to generate analytics and insights regarding shrinkage.


We recognise that each organisation is unique and has its own needs regarding security. Southern Cross Electronic Security will perform a comprehensive consultation to determine the most suitable EAS solution for your premises, considering environmental factors and the type of merchandise you are wishing to protect.

Our goal will always be to reduce theft and shrinkage as much as possible, without creating additional work for your staff with issues such as false alarms.

HOW DOES EAS WORK?

An EAS security system typically involves the use of two components: EAS tags or labels which are affixed to your merchandise, and specialised security gates (known as EAS antennas) that are installed at the entry / exit points of your premises.

Once a consumer has purchased an item, a device built into the checkout counter can deactivate the security tag. If, however, a customer attempts to remove merchandise from your premises without first having a staff member deactivate the tag, it will set off an alarm – thereby altering your staff to a potential theft.

EAS Security is a tried and tested method for decreasing external shrinkage within your business – with reports showing that the installation of an EAS system can decrease external shrinkage within the range of 50-90%.
