GENIO Wireless Solution – Recycle Factory Case Study

Protect Assets, Reduce Costs, Increase Profits with OPTEX GENIO Wireless Solution for Recycling Plants
A recycling plant faces the problem of theft of valuable materials such as copper, brass, and aluminum, which continuously causes business damage. Although there are CCTV cameras, they cannot prevent all thefts. With a large and complex area, installing a wired security system is difficult, time-consuming, and costly. It does not meet the urgent security needs and risks increased theft.
Challenges of Wired System Installation
Stand-alone CCTV
CCTV alone cannot prevent theft of valuable materials within the plant.
Wiring Difficulty
Large areas filled with scrap make wiring difficult and costly.
Business Disruption
Stopping operations to clear space for wiring impacts business and causes losses.
Profit Leakage
Delayed security system installation increases the risk of valuable material theft.

How does the system work?
The recycling factory, filled with valuable materials like aluminum and copper wires, often became a target for theft. Despite having CCTV cameras, they couldn’t effectively prevent intrusions.
To address this, the plant installed the GENIO Wireless Solution, integrating it with the existing CCTV system to enhance intruder detection. Wireless sensors were installed in high-risk areas, enabling immediate response when an intrusion is detected through…
- Siren activation with flashing lights and sound to deter intruders
- Live CCTV footage displayed on the monitoring screen and mobile app
This system provides real-time awareness of incidents, reduces losses from theft, and significantly strengthens security in vulnerable areas.
