As part of this significant investment, officials at Durham Tees Valley Airport turned to the same CEM AC2000 AE security management system that has been successfully installed at Robin Hood Airport since 2005 to enhance security and operations for the benefit of passengers, staff and airlines.

"The CEM solution was the ideal choice for Durham Tees Valley as it has successfully been in operation at Robin Hood Airport for several years and has a proven record as one of the most reliable and resilient airport solutions available," commented Alan Inkster, Managing Director, Advanced Integrated Systems. "The airside and landside doors will be secured using IP-enabled CEM EtherProx card readers which seamlessly fit into the existing cabling and IT infrastructure at the airport."
