Godrej Enterprises wins major aviation security upgrade contract at Cochin airport

The Security Solutions business of Godrej Enterprises Group has secured a major contract from Cochin International Airport Limited (CIAL) to deploy next-generation gate and perimeter security systems across key access points of the airport, marking a significant step in aviation security modernisation. The project includes installation of advanced Under Vehicle Scanning Systems (UVSS) integrated with Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology and high-performance tyre killers to strengthen vehicle screening, deterrence, and access control. The installations will cover entry and exit points of both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, enabling automated undercarriage scanning, real-time threat detection, and enhanced traceability of vehicular movements in line with Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) guidelines. This will be CIAL’s first large-scale vehicular access management deployment.

Godrej Enterprises Group said the project reinforces its growing presence in the aviation security segment, following similar deployments at several major airports across India. Company officials noted rising demand for automated access management and smart vehicle screening solutions across critical infrastructure sectors.

The growing adoption of advanced aviation security technologies at major airports is expected to drive demand in emerging aviation hubs such as Guwahati, where airport modernisation and expansion projects are creating opportunities for security technology providers and infrastructure solution firms.
