Search ASIA Travel Tips .com Wednesday, 26 July 2006

Smiths Detection recently won a contract worth almost Sin$ 2 million to supply x-ray systems to the Singaporean Immigration Checkpoint Authority (ICA) at Changi International Airport. Under the contract, Smiths Detection will supply 45 HI-SCAN x-ray systems to screen carry-on luggage and oversize baggage. They will be deployed in terminals 1, 2 and 3 to provide 100% screening of passengers arriving at Changi International.

The first batch of 18 x-ray systems will be delivered over the next few months and among the first passengers to be screened will be delegates attending the IMF/World Bank Forum, to be held in Singapore in September 2006. The contract is to be completed by mid 2007.

Mal Maginnis, President of Smiths Detection Asia Pacific, said, “This contract to supply x-ray screening systems to the Singaporean Government’s Immigration Checkpoint Authority is a further example of Smiths Detection’s commitment to customers requiring the highest quality detection technology available today. This contract will bring the total number of x-ray systems we have in service with various organisations operating at Changi International Airport to over 190 machines. This is clearly a testimony to our focus on delivering high quality products, and dedicated after-sales support.”
