Two significant contracts have been awarded to Sepura’s long-standing German partner, Selectric GmbH, for the supply of more than 6,000 TETRA radios to fire brigades in the regions of Straubing and Passau in Bavaria.

The contracts – comprising a combination of the market-leading hand-portables and mobile radios with accompanying accessories – build on previous successes in Bavaria.

The deal brings the total number of Sepura TETRA radios in frame contracts for German Public Safety users to over 350,000.

Hendrik Pieper, managing director for Selectric said: “Sepura and Selectric’s joint knowledge of the challenges facing mission-critical communications in Germany – and our expertise in tackling them – have, once again, been clearly validated by this achievement.”

Hooman Safaie, regional drector for Sepura added: “This new success demonstrates the formidable strength of our partnership with Selectric. It also reflects our commitment to the German public safety market – the largest TETRA market in the world – and our determination to maintain market leadership in the country.”
