What are the Best Two-Way Radios for Specific Industries?

There is no question about it, when it comes to certain businesses, reliable communication is everything, right? In fact, did you know that two-way radios are considered vital equipment for many professionals working in certain industries. This week’s Tuesday’s Tip examines three specific industries and why two-way radio technology is critical to their survival. Plus, we’ll provide recommendations of which two-way radio equipment works best for these industries and why.

1. Hospitality
One of the industries that uses two-way radios on a regular basis is the hospitality sector. Because hospitality-based businesses achieve success by providing guests a pleasurable and relaxing experience, two-way radios provide a reliable and economical way to achieve this through coordinated communication. Whether the porter who assists with luggage, or the front desk clerk, concierge agent, and maintenance crew hotels must connect multiple levels of staff on a regular basis. In fact, without reliable two-way radio communication equipment, many hotels could not operate at all.

Two-way radio systems for the hospitality industry need to be:

  • Durable
  • Easy-to-use and compact
  • Equipped with noise canceling technology
  • Water resistant

2. Construction
Construction sites are notoriously rugged places where something could fall, break, or collapse at any moment. Construction sites are also incredibly busy with people and vehicles constantly on the move. Between transporting heavy materials and operating dangerous machinery, there’s little room for mistakes and information needs to be communicated as clearly as it does instantly. That’s why many construction firms insist on professional commercial-grade communication equipment designed specifically to withstand daily abuse, dangerous environments, and extreme weather conditions. Reliable two-way radio communication also ensures safety while keeping large groups of sub-contractors, foremen, and laborers all coordinated and in constant contact.

  • Intrinsically safe
  • Affordable
  • Versatile
