The Security Solutions division of Godrej Enterprises Group has secured a significant contract from Cochin International Airport Limited (CIAL) to modernise vehicular access and perimeter protection systems at the airport. The scope includes deployment of advanced gate infrastructure and an integrated perimeter security framework across critical access points.
The project covers the installation of next-generation Under Vehicle Scanning Systems (UVSS) integrated with Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology, along with high-performance tyre killers. This unified security architecture is designed to strengthen vehicle inspection, improve deterrence, and tighten access control mechanisms across the airport premises.
Under the agreement, installations will be implemented at entry and exit gates of Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, enabling comprehensive monitoring of all incoming and outgoing vehicles. This represents CIAL’s first large-scale rollout of a fully integrated vehicular access control system, reinforcing its focus on enhanced aviation safety standards and strict adherence to guidelines set by the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS).
Once operational, every vehicle entering designated airport zones will undergo automated undercarriage inspection through the UVSS platform, ensuring precise scanning, real-time threat detection, and improved perimeter protection. The integration of ANPR will further enhance traceability, audit efficiency, and regulatory compliance. This order marks a key development for Godrej Enterprises Group’s Security Solutions business, strengthening its presence in the aviation security sector, particularly across Kerala and South India.
Pushkar Gokhale, Business Head, Security Solutions, Godrej Enterprises Group, said, “Aviation remains a strategic growth area for our Security Solutions portfolio. Airports across the country are accelerating investments in advanced, regulation-aligned security infrastructure. Our collaboration with Cochin International Airport Limited highlights our capabilities in delivering high-performance perimeter security technologies. We are witnessing sustained demand for intelligent vehicle screening, automated access control, and robust deterrent systems. Our expanding footprint across major Indian airports reflects the confidence placed in our solutions and our commitment to supporting secure and compliant critical infrastructure nationwide.”
Over the past year, the division has gained strong traction in the critical infrastructure segment, securing projects at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, Kannur International Airport, Thiruvananthapuram International Airport, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport, Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport, Alluri Sitarama Raju International Airport and Rajiv Gandhi International Airport. The Cochin deployment is expected to enhance airport safety, streamline vehicle processing, and reinforce compliance with regulatory requirements.
