El Salvador: 1 million scans
With 13 X-ray scanners in operation across the country, at 8 different inspection sites, and all monitored through an efficient Control Center, Cotecna continues to help improve the security and safety at El Salvador's border crossings, ports and airports through a country-wide state-of-the-art scanning solution.
Recognising this achievement, Pablo Ugarte, Country Director at Cotecna El Salvador, said "We want to thank the entire operational team for their hard work to reach this important milestone. We also want to thank the Ministry of Finance and the Salvadoran Custom for trusting in our experience to provide the non-intrusive inspection service in our country.
