# Facility: Security and Site Systems
What the plant needs beyond the production machinery. Access control and
CCTV are set requirements; the rest of this list is what a plant of this
profile definitely needs, to be refined during site design.
## Physical security
- **Access control**: zoned, not just at the gate. Minimum zones: general
production, galvanics clean room (controlled access is already a safety
requirement), chemical storage, master/stamper archive, server/IT room,
finished goods and shipping. Badge or biometric, with logs.
- **CCTV**: entrances, perimeter, loading dock, production floor, chemical
storage, archive. Retention policy to be defined; Thai PDPA (personal data
protection) applies to camera footage of staff and visitors.
- **Intrusion alarm** with monitoring, covering off-hours.
- **Perimeter and lighting**: fencing appropriate to the site, lit
approaches and parking.
- **Visitor management**: sign-in, escort rules, PPE issue at entry, no
unaccompanied access to production or galvanics.
## Protecting the irreplaceable
- **Master and stamper archive**: fathers and mothers are unique metal
parts; a destroyed father can mean re-cutting and re-plating a release.
The archive room needs fire-rated construction or safes, climate control,
access logging, and an off-site strategy for the most critical masters.
- **Client audio**: pre-release music is a high-value leak target, and
labels ask about it before they send masters. Isolated storage for client
files, encrypted transfer and at-rest storage, strict need-to-know access,
and a written policy the sales team can show clients.
- **Chemical inventory**: silver nitrate is valuable and regulated; nickel
salts are hazardous. Locked storage, inventory tracking, and controlled
issue to the galvanics team.
## Fire and life safety
- **Fire detection and alarm** throughout; suppression matched to each zone
(hot PVC and hydraulic oil in pressing, chemistry in galvanics, paper and
cartons in packaging/finished goods, and the boiler room).
- **Boiler room safety**: the steam generator (10 bar, 180 °C) needs its own
room, safety valves and interlocks, and inspection per Thai boiler
regulations (Department of Industrial Works requirements, licensed boiler
operator).
- **Emergency equipment in galvanics**: eyewash stations and emergency
shower at the plating line, spill kits, and neutralizing agents.
- **Emergency lighting, marked exits, assembly point**, and first-aid
coverage on every shift.
## Plant systems and monitoring
- **Utility monitoring and interlocks**: fume-extraction interlocks on the
galvanics line (no extraction, no plating), steam and compressed-air
pressure monitoring, leak detection, and safe-shutdown sequences.
- **UPS and controlled shutdown** for the IT room, access control, alarms,
and the press PLCs (a power cut mid-cycle should never leave a press in an
unsafe state; the battery stack can carry critical loads).
- **Lightning protection and grounding**: northern Thailand has intense
storm seasons; the PV array, steel structures, and electronics all need a
proper LPS and earthing design.
- **Environmental monitoring**: temperature and humidity logging in
production (the process spec calls for 20-26 °C, 35-60% RH), the archive,
and the clean room.
## Compliance anchors (Thailand)
- Factory license (Ror.Ngor. 4) and Department of Industrial Works
requirements for the machinery classes and chemical quantities involved
- Boiler registration and licensed operator requirements
- Hazardous substance registration for the plating chemistry
- PDPA compliance for CCTV and personnel data
- Local fire codes and building permits during construction
All of this belongs in the site design brief, so contractors quote it from
day one rather than retrofitting it.
