12 March 2014

Pentagon Protection plc (AIM: PPR) is pleased to announce a number of contract wins for the Group, valued at more than £555,000 for the current financial year.

Pentagon's US subsidiary, IGS has been awarded contracts, primarily for building glass retention and enhanced security protection, with a total value of more than £367,000.

In the UK, Pentagon has been contracted to carry out external balustrade glass protection works with a contract value of £61,000 and overseas contracts that include building and vehicle glass protection works totalling £63,000 from Nigeria, Guinea and Saudi Arabia.

Pentagon's specialist security division, SDS Group has also been awarded contracts for the supply of the latest specialist high-resolution X-ray equipment and specialist building threat risk assessment services, for another existing overseas client, the total value of these contracts being £65,000.

Pentagon's Managing Director, Steve Chambers comments:

"I am pleased to announce these contract awards across all divisions of the Group and especially IGS's large contract win in the United States. The IGS contracts include external application works on a large 19-storey site building in Houston, Texas and the application of security window film with Pentagon attachment on numerous retail locations spread across several States for one of our corporate clients.

In addition to the demand for our building security solutions we are also seeing an increased requirement for fleet vehicle glass protection overseas, which is an ideal application for Supaglass, our tried and tested automotive security window film system. Whether it's protecting building flat glass with high-tensile strength film and rigid or flexible edge-retention anchoring profiles, reinforcing tanker bridge glass for anti-piracy or protecting vehicles with Supaglass, Pentagon Protection is at the forefront of glazing protection and security."
