Developer of the JetFlex gate operators, considered the fastest in the world, PPA has consolidated itself as an important global player in the electronic security sector.
The company, which has been present since 2015, is preparing for a new expansion cycle in the American market, with the growth of its product portfolio.
Acquisitions
In recent years, PPA acquired three companies: the Celtron current movers factory, Citrox, which specialises in access control, electric fence, alarms, and IoT (internet of things), and GCP. Each company today constitutes a PPA product line.
“These acquisitions allowed us to complete our product line. The distributor has to have the complete line to offer an installer. Thus, he can go to people's homes and sell everything they need in terms of security,” said PPA president Flavio Peres.

Inverter tech reduces consumption
PPA's flagship in the US is the Nexus Cube mover, developed specifically for the American market. With inverter technology, it allows reducing energy consumption compared to other products.
In addition, the Nexus Cube provides high operating speed with precise movements, reducing wear, extending the life of the product and the structure of the gate.
Extending list of products
“Demand has grown a lot. Between the first half of this year and the same period last year, there was a 40% growth in our sales in the American market. We are already known for our gate operators. And soon, PPA intends to make available in the US a more extensive list of products, such as the Citrox line”, explained Peres.
PPA currently exports to over 30 countries. The US is one of the most promising markets for the company, which is building an extensive network of distributors in the country.
PPA's trademarks
Since it's founding in 1983, proximity to distributors, installers, and end consumers has been one of PPA's trademarks.
Another factor that distinguished PPA in the global electronic security market for its high investment in technological innovations. The company currently has a team of more than 40 mechanical and electronic engineers and invests more than 10% of its payroll in P&D.
