For over 30 years, Alpha has provided retailers with the most innovative and technically advanced products engineered to protect high-theft merchandise. Every Alpha product is designed to defend retailer’s bottom line by helping their business reduce theft and increase sales, delivering uncompromising security, ease-of-use for their store associates, aesthetics that complement the merchandise it protects, and an ROI in less than twelve months.

On November 1, 2007 the S3 line of Alpha was acquired by Checkpoint Systems. Alpha now operates as an independent division of Checkpoint Systems. Our product solutions are technology agnostic, designed to complement the retailer’s EAS system, whether AM, RF or EM. Alpha’s solutions are also designed to reduce theft and increase sales at retailers who do not use an EAS system.

Alpha is the only company that focuses exclusively on protecting high-risk merchandise and pioneer the “Open Display” security philosophy. We were the first to provide retailers a truly safe means to bring merchandise from behind locked cabinets and openly display it. All of our customers have experienced immediate results in increased sales, decreased theft, and an ROI that justifies the purchase. We are very proud of the fact that over 95% of retailers who test our product solutions become our customers after the test.

Alpha product solutions are carried by a growing number of retailers in each major vertical market, including Office Supply, Consumer Electronics, Multimedia, Grocery, Drug, Mass Merchant, Discount, Sporting Goods, Apparel, Specialty and DIY. Our solutions have been so effective that they are now carried by each of the top three retailers in each of these retail segments.

Alpha’s corporate headquarters are located in Charlotte, North Carolina with manufacturing and distribution facilities in the U.S., Europe and Far East.
