Research & Development
Our products aren’t just created on paper, but by the demands of the real world. It’s our customers and their needs that inspire and shape our designs and, when combined with our class-leading capabilities, result in superior solutions.
When it comes to product design, we research our customers’ and our partners’ needs to gain an intimate understanding of their requirements.
But it’s not enough for us to merely fulfil these requirements – we are completely committed to delivering way beyond their expectations.
Our experience tells us – as do our customers – that they believe in our products, not only because they are functionally and practically superior, convenient, intuitive and safe to use, but also because history has taught them that they consistently deliver, time after time, year after year, to deliver faultless service. And being relentless innovators, we make sure that Gallagher products also evolve and adapt to their changing needs. In short, our customers really like what we do.
Armed with this knowledge, the 100-plus R&D staff based at our New Zealand head office work to combine their expertise with their drive and passion to deliver dynamic products in a range of markets – electric fence technology, radio frequency ID, IT and security, data encryption, high security applications, systems integration and industrial design.
So as a team that’s driven to innovate, it’s no surprise that we hold more than 160 patents worldwide or that we are market leaders in the access control, perimeter security and animal management systems market.
