Enhancing Efficiency and Security at Agaris Belgium

Agaris Belgium, a leading innovator in sustainable growing media, soil conditioners, and ground covers, sought a seamless and secure access control system for their Ghent-based premises. Their goal? To streamline vehicle, visitor, and staff entry while maintaining the highest security standards.

The Challenge:

Agaris Belgium required a solution that would allow truck drivers and visitors to register seamlessly via a self-service kiosk. This data needed to integrate directly with an access control system, enabling smooth entry without delays. Additionally, they needed a system that could:

• Offer flexible, user-friendly access management
• Leverage advanced technologies like QR codes and automatic number plate recognition (ANPR)
• Provide safe passage for employees commuting by bicycle
• Optimize parking efficiency
