EEA

What EEA does

EEA (E.E.A. S.r.l.) is an Italian designer and manufacturer of professional intrusion-detection sensors, headquartered in Rome and operating since 2008. The company produces a portfolio of dual-technology (microwave + passive infrared), triple-technology, and curtain-pattern detectors organized across indoor lines (Syrio, Zefiro, Polaris), outdoor/perimeter lines (Velvet, Myni, Centrum, Master), and a low-absorption "LAB" sub-brand optimized for wireless radio systems. Core technology centers on proprietary features such as the GLAS (Global Antimasking System), Active LED anti-masking, B-Velvet bidirectional curtain detection, and THREE BALANCE pet-immunity logic, with products certified to ISO 9001, EN 50131, and IMQ standards. EEA maintains complete in-house control over the manufacturing process — from product conception and electronics design to plastic-part molding — at its single Rome facility on Via Casilina.

The company monetizes primarily through hardware sales of its sensors, with pricing undisclosed and a custom/dedicated production offering for specialized customer specifications. EEA serves professional security installers, system integrators, and indirectly the commercial, industrial, and residential end users of those integrators. The go-to-market relies on a network of European distributors, system integrators, and recurring trade-show presence at SICUREZZA (Milan), The Security Event (Birmingham), TaoSicurezza (Catania), and Paris security fairs, supplemented by a multilingual website and active social-media channels. Recent strategic emphasis has been on product innovation (B-Velvet, E2A integration system, Zefiro CAM IP video-verification sensor) and selective geographic expansion into the UK, Nordic, and francophone North African markets via co-development partnerships and international exhibitions.

Core offering

EEA designs and manufactures professional anti-intrusion sensors using dual technology (microwave + passive infrared), triple technology, and curtain detection architectures for indoor and outdoor security installations. The product range covers volumetric detectors for indoor civil and commercial environments, outdoor curtain and perimeter detectors, and low-absorption variants for wireless systems, with all units designed, industrialized, and assembled in-house in Rome.

Product overview

EEA Srl is an Italian company (founded in 2008, headquartered in Rome) specializing in the design and manufacture of anti-intrusion sensors and detectors. The company produces a comprehensive portfolio of security sensors organized into outdoor, indoor, and low-absorption (LAB) product lines. Outdoor products include Velvet (dual technology curtain detectors), Myni (curtain detectors for doors/windows), Centrum (center-window detectors), and Master (multi-beam triple technology detectors). Indoor products include Syrio (professional civil applications), Zefiro (industrial/commercial with GLAS antimasking), Polaris (ceiling-mounted with double antimasking), and Akab (supported product line). The LAB (low absorption) sub-brand offers battery-optimized versions of outdoor sensors for wireless/radio system applications. EEA maintains complete control over the manufacturing process from product conception through electronic-mechanical-plastic design to final assembly, with products certified to ISO 9001 and EN 50131 standards.
