One of the largest breweries in Netherlands, Bavaria, recently replaced its aging security management system with Nedap's security management platform. The project included the installation of card readers, IP cameras, intercom and visitor registration all integrated with the security management platform. The system was implemented by Dutch system integrator Imtech.

Established since 1718, Bavaria is one of the second oldest family-owned businesses in Netherlands. The brewery employs about 1,000 employees both domestically and abroad, and exports 65 percent of its products to more than 120 countries. The company, which produces more than 6 million hectolitres of beer annually, needed a new security management system as its old security system faced retirement.

A decisive factor in deploying the security management platform is due to its open standards and technology. It also combines features including access control, IP video management and intercom in a security controller. The platform's scalability is future-proof and can meet the growing needs of Bavaria.
