Chevron Products Company names Sensormatic sole provider of CCTV Systems for its direct operated service stations in the U. S.

BOCA RATON, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 14, 1996--Sensormatic Electronics Corporation (SRM:NYSE) today announced that it has been named the sole provider of closed-circuit television (CCTV) systems for Chevron Products Company's direct operated service stations in the U.S. Chevron, headquartered in San Francisco, California, is the one of the leading U.S. marketers of refined products, including motor gasoline, diesel, aviation fuels, lubricants and other products.

Chevron was first introduced to Sensormatic at the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games headquarters, where Chevron toured the security command and control center for the Games.

"We first became aware of the scope of Sensormatic's capabilities through its Olympic involvement," stated Scott R. Moline, a senior marketing engineer for Chevron. "We looked at other CCTV system providers but no one provided the breadth of leading-edge technologies and support available from Sensormatic. Sensormatic is well positioned to support Chevron's immediate needs but also has the research and development facilities to meet our future requirements."

"When Sensormatic first announced it would supply the electronic security for the 1996 Olympic Games, our goal was to increase our exposure beyond the traditional retail marketplace," said Joe Ryan, vice president with Olympic Program Responsiblity. "The Olympics gave us the opportunity to introduce the marketplace as to the true scope of our capabilities beyond an electronic article surveillance (EAS) tag company that prevents shoplifting. The Olympics made it possible for Sensormatic to align with industry leaders such as Chevron.

Sensormatic Electronics Corporation, the world leader in electronic security, and the Official Electronic Security Supplier for the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, is a fully integrated supplier of electronic security systems to retail, commercial and industrial markets. Sensormatic is also a leader in the security industry in integrated source tagging -- a process where consumer goods manufacturers apply anti-theft labels at the point of packaging or manufacturing.

The company's electronic article surveillance (EAS), closed-circuit television (CCTV) and exception monitoring systems are used by soft goods and hard goods retailers to deter shoplifting and internal theft.

Sensormatic's CCTV, access control and electronic asset protection (EAP) security systems are used by retail, commercial and industrial customers to protect assets, information and people. All of the company's products are marketed by an extensive worldwide sales and service organization, complemented by a broad distribution network.
