Main Hardware International at DCWA 2025: A Successful Showcase
We’re delighted to report that our participation in Data Centre World Asia 2025 (8–9 October 2025 at Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre, Singapore) was a resounding success.
At booth H65, we had the privilege of welcoming industry professionals, data centre managers, integrators and security specialists from across Asia Pacific and beyond.
Highlights from Our Booth
We represented three major global brands: ACRE (access control), Invixium (biometrics) and Gunnebo (physical turnstiles and barriers).
Live demonstrations included:
ACRE Access Control showing credential issuance, zone segmentation, real-time monitoring and audit trails.
Invixium’s biometric reader range featuring the Titan, Rosto and TFace models, which demonstrated facial recognition, touchless authentication and multi-factor workflows.
Gunnebo’s FLS Max turnstile solution, designed for high-throughput, high-security environments such as data centers, clean rooms and critical infrastructure.
We engaged with visitors exploring next-generation data center security, infrastructure resilience and access control best practices. Many appreciated seeing integrated workflows combining card, biometric and turnstile systems in one seamless demonstration.
Key Takeaways and Insights
There is a clear and urgent demand in the APAC region for secure yet scalable access control solutions for data centres, especially those servicing hyperscale, edge and AI-driven workloads.
Biometrics are no longer optional. They are becoming operationally essential for high-security facilities, and our Invixium range captured strong interest.
Physical barriers like the Gunnebo FLS Max are increasingly viewed not just as perimeter hardware but as operational nodes in a security architecture that interfaces with access control software, analytics and network infrastructure.
Exhibiting at DCWA allowed us to gather insights from regional integrators and operators. Common challenges included power, cooling, security zoning and retrofitting legacy builds. These aligned with the broader event themes of sustainability, operational efficiency and AI integration.
Our booth H65 location attracted strong foot traffic, and the live demos encouraged meaningful conversations instead of passive product browsing.
What This Means for Our Clients
For clients in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and across Southeast Asia, we now have first-hand exposure to the latest global access-security hardware and are better positioned to offer future-ready solutions.
Our regional support capabilities matter. We provide local service, spares and integration expertise to ensure fast turnaround.
The three-brand combination of ACRE, Invixium and Gunnebo gives us a strong value proposition: integrated access control, biometrics and physical barrier hardware under one roof. This means simpler system architecture, fewer vendor hand-offs and a more seamless implementation process.
A big thank you to everyone who visited us at booth H65. Your interest, questions and feedback were invaluable. We’ll be following up individually with the contacts and discussions we made during the show. If you didn’t get a chance to meet us at the show, or if you’d like to arrange a follow-up meeting or demo, please reach us via our contact page or email askme@mainhardwareinc.com.
