The Security Industry Association (SIA) New Products & Solutions (NPS) Awards Committee has named ASSA ABLOY as the 2022 recipient of the SIA NPS Merit Award. ASSA ABLOY will be presented with the award at the 2022 SIA NPS Awards Ceremony, which will be held during ISC West.

The SIA NPS Awards, established in 1979, recognizes security products, services and solutions. The awards are presented annually in partnership with ISC West.

The SIA NPS Merit Award recognizes individuals and/or companies who, through their support of the SIA NPS Awards, demonstrate a commitment to the vision and mission of the program, contribute to its success and, in so doing, promote the advancement of SIA and the security industry overall.

“ASSA ABLOY is honored to be recognized by SIA with the NPS Merit Award,” said ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions Head of U.S. Commercial Sales Sean McGrath. “Innovation is a cornerstone of our business, and the NPS program is an excellent platform to highlight the importance of innovation in security. We would like to thank SIA for their critical role in advancing the security industry.”

ASSA ABLOY is a longtime SIA corporate member and was named the 2020 SIA Member of the Year. The company has frequently participated in SIA NPS Awards, entering its solutions and services into the program each year in a variety of categories.

“This year, the NPS Committee voted to present the SIA NPS Merit Award to ASSA ABLOY based on the company’s participation in the program year after year with multiple entries across a wide array of categories,” said SIA NPS Committee Chair Christopher Grniet. “This participation is a key indicator of ASSA ABLOY’s commitment to innovation and the advancement of the security industry and serves as an example of how companies like ASSA ABLOY understand and realize the value of the NPS in bringing their products to market. To those ends, my fellow NPS Committee members and I would like to congratulate ASSA ABLOY on being selected for the Merit Award this year and also thank them for their continued involvement in the NPS program.”
