ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions is announcing that its critical infrastructure offering will adapt ALCEA as its main brand. French-based ALCEA SAS has roots in the security solutions industry dating back to 1995 and was acquired by ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions in 2022. The introduction of the renewed brand marks the beginning of a journey to position ALCEA as a provider of total security solutions for critical infrastructure worldwide.

By integrating products, solutions, and services from ASSA ABLOY, ALCEA, ABLOY, and third-party companies, ALCEA is set to enhance ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions’ position as a unique solution provider and trusted partner to several strategically important industries globally.

Expand service levels

The brand will resume to uphold and grow service levels for clients, with a growth focus

When critical infrastructure such as energy, water, telecom, or transportation is interrupted, societies can't thrive. ALCEA exists to protect critical infrastructure globally and ensure businesses and people can continue to feel safe and operate uninterrupted,” says Stephanie Ordan, Executive Vice President and Head of ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions.

Placing ALCEA as the main brand for critical infrastructure offerings creates a more focused messaging with a clear identity. The brand will continue to uphold and expand service levels for customers, with an increased focus on customised security solutions.

Incorporating ABLOY solutions

Our critical infrastructure offering has traditionally consisted of solutions provided by ABLOY."

"As part of this shift, we're incorporating ABLOY solutions under the ALCEA brand, which will further strengthen our position and allow us to deliver an even broader range of high-quality services to our customers," says Stephanie Ordan.
