Byline: Daily News

VALENCIA - Delta Scientific has installed its counterterrorist systems at U.S. embassies in Estonia, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Ivory Coast, Guatemala, Nepal, Lithuania and Madagascar as well as the U.S. Consulate in Florence, Italy.

Delta Scientific, headquartered in Valencia, with its manufacturing plant in Palmdale, now supplies barricade systems to more than 170 U.S. embassies and consulates in more than 130 countries.

Delta blockades meet or exceed U.S. Department of State and Department of Defense certification standards. The company's permanent vehicle barricades range from surface-mounted and shallow-foundation designs to cable beam barricades for parking lots. They include both high-security and very-high-security models, and can stop a vehicle weighing up to 7.5 tons traveling up to 50 mph.

Delta's portable crash-rated barriers and barricades were first used successfully to protect NATO troops in Kosovo and elsewhere.

Delta Scientific systems also protect the U.S. Capitol and other Washington landmark buildings, high-rises throughout the world, Broadway pedestrians in New York City, corporate facilities, the Singapore Parliament, power and water infrastructure locales, European castles and some private homes.

Delta is the leading manufacturer of vehicle-access-control equipment and operates in more than 250,000 square feet in Valencia and Palmdale. Delta's three product lines consist of high-security vehicle-barricade systems, parking control equipment and guard booths. Delta Scientific has been engineering and manufacturing security systems since 1974 and sells its products worldwide.
