The problem

Construction sites are high-value targets.

Plant theft, material losses and vandalism cost the UK construction industry hundreds of millions every year. Traditional security solutions weren't built for the realities of an active site.

Out-of-hours theft

Plant, tools and materials are most vulnerable overnight and at weekends when sites are unmanned.

Large perimeters

Construction sites often span multiple acres with long fence lines that are difficult to monitor with fixed cameras.

No mains power

Active sites rarely have permanent electrical infrastructure in place, ruling out traditional wired CCTV systems.

Changing site layout

As the build progresses, coverage requirements shift — security systems need to adapt without costly reinstallation.

Multiple access points

Contractors, deliveries and visitors create numerous entry points that all need monitoring and recording.

Regulatory compliance

Principal contractors have legal obligations under CDM regulations to maintain site security and protect the public.

The solution

How Camterra protects construction sites.

Every aspect of the Camterra system is designed around the specific challenges of construction site security — from off-grid power to rapid repositioning as the build progresses.

Off-grid solar power

No mains connection required. Solar panels and battery backup keep the system running 24/7 regardless of site infrastructure.

340° panoramic coverage

A single CCTV tower covers the equivalent of multiple fixed cameras. Fewer units, complete site awareness.

AI motion detection

Smart algorithms distinguish genuine threats from wind, animals and false triggers. Only real events generate alerts.

Deployed in under 2 hours

No groundworks, no contractors, no delay. One person can have a tower operational from arrival in under two hours.

Active deterrence

Integrated lighting and siren respond to detected intrusions. Visible towers deter opportunistic theft before it happens.

Repositionable as you build

Move towers to follow the build programme. Coverage adapts to the site without reinstallation costs.
