Review: Strong trade fair presence with the support of MEDC
Intersec Dubai 2026 took place from 12 to 14 January at the Dubai World Trade Centre and once again confirmed its role as the most important trade fair for security and fire protection technologies in the Middle East. Polish manufacturer SATEL presented its portfolio of integrated security and fire alarm systems at the event and used the trade fair to expand its presence in the region – with the support of the Middle East Distribution Centre (MEDC).
Regional market development with a strong partner
The trade fair appearance highlighted the strategic importance of the Middle East for SATEL. Together with the MEDC as a regional distribution and competence centre, the company addressed the specific market requirements of the Gulf states and neighbouring markets. The MEDC acted as a central interface between manufacturers, system integrators and project partners, supporting direct dialogue on local standards, project requirements and implementation models.
Demand for integrated security architectures
The focus of interest was on scalable, networked security solutions that combine intrusion detection, access control, fire alarm technology and building functions in a common system architecture. Discussions at the stand clearly showed that integrated platforms with centralised management are becoming increasingly important, particularly for residential, commercial and infrastructure properties – both for new construction projects and for the modernisation of existing facilities.
System and product highlights presented
At Intersec Dubai 2026, SATEL presented both proven solutions and upcoming portfolio additions, including:
- BE WAVE Wire and BE WAVE Hybrid – wired and hybrid variants for flexible security concepts
- SLIM LINE – expanded motion detector family with new ceiling detectors and AC detectors for automatic lighting control
- New ACSP components – for expanding addressable fire alarm systems
- INT-TSH210, INT-TSH2R and INT-TSG2R – control panels with integrated MIFARE® card readers
- INTEGRUM – central management platform for INTEGRA, ACCO NET and ACSP systems
- INTEGRA Soft – upcoming software generation as successor to DLOADX
The combination of hardware, software and management solutions was met with great interest, particularly among system integrators looking for uniform, maintenance-friendly platforms.
Intensive exchange and market feedback
During the three days of the trade fair, SATEL and MEDC held numerous technical discussions with integrators, planners and decision-makers from the region. Topics discussed included project requirements in the areas of fire protection, intelligent building security and the integration of different subsystems into central management environments. Direct market feedback confirmed the relevance of integrated, future-proof security solutions for the Middle East.
Conclusion
SATEL’s appearance at Intersec Dubai 2026 proved to be a successful step towards further market development in the region. Working closely with the Middle East Distribution Centre, the company was able to position its solutions in a targeted manner, deepen existing partnerships and establish new contacts. The trade fair underlined the growing importance of integrated security and fire protection systems – and confirmed the Middle East as a key strategic market for SATEL.
