The UK correctional sector has some of the industry's most demanding procurement processes, and repeat business signals proven reliability in mission-critical applications.

Hauppauge, NY, June 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vicon Industries, a subsidiary of Cemtrex Inc. (Nasdaq: CETX) and a leading provider of advanced security and surveillance solutions, today announced it has secured a new set of significant orders from correctional facilities in the United Kingdom. The contracts, valued at approximately $.8 million, further Vicon’s position as a trusted provider in one of the world’s most regulated and demanding surveillance environments.
The orders came through a long-term integration partner of Vicon and include advanced surveillance hardware and software for multiple prisons and an immigration center. Each deployment features a tailored mix of Vicon’s advanced outdoor dome and bullet cameras, Valerus enterprise video management licenses, and high-performance recording servers, all optimized for 24/7 operation in secure facilities.
“These repeat orders from within the UK’s custodial sector underscore the critical role our technology plays in protecting secure facilities,” said Saagar Govil, Chairman and CEO of Cemtrex. “They are a direct reflection of the value we bring including reliable performance, seamless integration, and a product roadmap aligned with the evolving needs of public infrastructure clients.”
The UK correctional market is known for its stringent standards and rigorous procurement processes. Vicon’s ability to consistently meet those demands is a testament to its deep engineering capabilities and commitment to long-term customer partnerships.
“Our continued traction in this sector isn’t just about strong products, it’s about trust earned over years of consistent delivery,” added Govil. “As infrastructure modernization accelerates, we are proud to be a partner of choice for institutions focused on resilience, safety, and operational excellence.”
These latest orders build on a multi-year track record of success in the UK market and reinforce Vicon’s position as a preferred provider for critical government applications. The systems are scheduled to begin deployment this quarter and are expected to be fully delivered before the end of the fiscal year. The client, which requested confidentiality, has also indicated the potential for future orders tied to ongoing infrastructure upgrades.
