Seamlessly integrated with e-mergency
For schools, government agencies, or businesses that want to implement a structured approach to ensuring the safety of workers who are alone on the job and managing risks: Physical alarm buttons allow for discreet alarm activation. Location-specific, reliable, and fully integrated into e-mergency.
Customers who trust us:
Discreet alarm triggering instead of an ad hoc response
Field and office staff who work alone in direct contact with customers require special attention. Not every situation allows for active intervention or visible action.
For such threat scenarios, our physical GPS and LoRaWAN panic buttons offer a discreet solution. Employees can trigger an alarm with the push of a button without drawing attention to themselves.
Protection is quite different when it comes to working alone, where employees are occasionally on the job without direct contact with colleagues: Our TWIG device is specifically designed for this purpose and provides continuous protection with automatic location and time alarms.
With e-mergency, you can not only send alerts but also define the entire process yourself: recipients, message content, and escalations.

Why e-mergency with emergency buttons is useful
Alarms can be triggered using the alarm buttons (LoRaWAN, GSM, and TWIG), as well as via the mobile app, web app, phone call, and third-party systems.
Push notifications with critical alerts (loud alerts even in silent mode), text messages, voice calls, email, conference calls, parallel ringing, and Teams provide redundant communication channels.
Select recipient groups by location, role, or group; optionally take operating hours into account.
In the event of an incident, notify the appropriate crisis response teams immediately.
With e-mergency, you not only benefit from rapid alerting (e.g., via our alarm buttons) but also from proven response procedures (standard scenarios). Developed in collaboration with the Zurich Department of Education, the Zurich Cantonal Police, and the City of Zurich’s Office for Violence Prevention.

Frequently Asked Questions
The LoRaWAN emergency button is battery-powered. Battery life: 4–7 years.
The use of LoRaWAN depends on the availability and quality of network coverage. Signal quality is significantly influenced by the building’s structure. As a result, connection limitations or interruptions may occur, particularly in areas with weak network coverage or in buildings with solid concrete construction (e.g., underground parking garages, basements, and reinforced concrete cores).
Inside buildings, the signal can be amplified using a LoRaWAN gateway if necessary. e-mergency AG can provide test devices upon request.
Every 1–2 days with regular use; we recommend charging it after every workday during which the button was used.
No, neither LoRaWAN nor GSM emergency buttons alert emergency services directly. They first send the alert internally to their own team, which escalates it if necessary.
TWIG can transmit directly to an emergency call center, but only under certain conditions.
No, that's not possible. The alarm buttons are an integral part of the e-mergency solution and only work in conjunction with it.
When the LoRaWAN emergency button is pressed, a predefined alarm message including your current location is immediately sent to your team. If they cannot reach you, they will escalate the alarm to emergency services.
Yes, each LoRaWAN emergency button can be configured individually so that, when the button is pressed, a specific message is sent to a defined group of people.
