Brady Expands Secured Production Space For Brand Protection Solutions

Brady Corporation (NYSE:BRC) has announced that it has expanded its secure production space in North America. The expansion, which more than doubles the company’s previous secured production space and security infrastructure, gives Brady additional capacity to meet increased customer demand for its brand protection solutions for anti-counterfeiting and security controls.

It also enables the company to maintain its certification with the North American Security Products Organization (NASPO). This facility is one of Brady’s two NASPO-certified locations; the other is located in Singapore. Both sites follow a rigid set of standards and operational protocols to ensure the security of the technologies and solutions being produced.

“Over the past few years, we’ve been privileged to work closely with several of the top brand owners in the world,” said Mike Veum, vice-president and general manager of Brady North America. “These facility upgrades will enable Brady to not only meet, but exceed their expectations for security controls.”

“Our steady growth in the brand protection business over the past several years, coupled with more stringent customer requirements in this area, has driven our investment to expand the physical floor space allotted for secure manufacturing and specialized production equipment that enhances our label converting and track and trace management systems,” said Brady Industry Marketing Manager Dennis Polinski.
