Ensuring drivers are not under the influence of alcohol is a critical aspect of risk management.
For most operators, driver safety performance tests begin at the recruitment stage and often include alcohol screening as part of an operational safety policy.
Alcolock UK, a division of Alcohol Countermeasure Systems (ACS), has been a leading manufacturer of breath alcohol sensing equipment and drug screening solutions since 1976.
Its breathalyser products use the same electrochemical sensors as law enforcement and are approved by the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardisation, Cenelec and other worldwide standard agencies.
The Alcolock V3 ignition interlock, Drivesafe personal breathalyser, and the Alert J5 professional breathalyser with Bluetooth printer are used extensively within the transport, commercial and industrial sectors.
Alcolock UK’s ignition interlock devices ensure that the vehicle cannot be started if alcohol is present in the driver’s breath sample.
It also distributes the Saf’ir Evolution – evidential infrared breathalysers used by law enforcement, medical and alcohol rehabilitation facilities – worldwide.
