Security Protection Products

BRE Global works closely with government, police, insurers, consultants, architects, and end users to develop standards and certification schemes which ensure security equipment and systems deliver effective levels of protection against a range of hostile threats, including criminals and terrorists.   BRE Global has published several world Loss Prevention Standards for security covering an extremely wide range of product types and applications. These include:

• LPS 1175 – While this standard has been widely used for defining protection of infrastructure and valuable assets across many sectors in the UK for over 20 years, Issue 8 saw the introduction of an innovative matrix approach to performance classification that has led to the standard going global. BRE’s ground-breaking approach to classifying resistance to intrusion drew inspiration from Entrepreneurial Offender Theory. It provides stakeholders with a classification system that supports the holistic application of defence in depth and use of adversary path analysis. Since Issue 8’s publication in 2019, it has been adopted by several global enterprises as well as gained recognition from several international NGOs as well as being cited within national standards in several countries around the globe.
• LPS 2081 – This was the UK’s first standard that included a performance classification system that specifically recognised stealth as a specific category of intruder threat. It defines a method of benchmarking a product’s resistance to intrusion attempts by those unwilling to use large tools or generate significant or sustained levels of noise due to their fear of being detected via natural surveillance. In doing so, it supports the delivery of proportionate levels of protection in environments principally facing such threats.
• LPS 1224 and LPS 1125 – These were first developed in the late 90’s to provide a means of benchmarking the efficacy of overt marking systems based on their resistance to unauthorised removal or destruction and security protocols applied to the supporting registers of marked assets.   In addition to certifying security products and services to Loss Prevention Standards, we issue certification to a wide range of British, European, and other standards – providing unrivalled assurance of their security related performance attributes.
