Exacta Secures Pentura Contract
Bristol, UK - 26 November 2008 – Exacta Technologies has been awarded a major contract to supply customised security devices for the leading Risk Management Service provider, Pentura. The 1U rack mount units will be used by Pentura as an integral part of the company’s managed security services suite, which enables their customers to maintain complete control over their security estate.
Exacta provides a complete end to end outsource manufacturing service for a wide range of enterprise level software developers including market leading technologies in the security, telecoms, CCTV and surveillance sectors.

Commenting for Pentura, MD Steve Smith said “Exacta is able to provide us with a purpose designed appliance, built to our exact specifications at a highly competitive cost point and without needing to commit to the high volume minimum orders typical of the industry. The fact the appliances can be custom finished in our corporate colours and logo, ensuring that our brand is highly visible in some of the UK’s leading corporate data centres, was the clinching factor in our decision to choose Exacta as our manufacturing partner.”
