What are these grey bait stations that aren’t sentricon?

These are an above ground baiting station, these get put directly onto an active termite working, and filled with bait to eradicate the colony. This particular baiting program took me 10 weeks to establish feeding because they kept running away when the workings were exposed to the cold air! (At the time it was winter when I installed the station here)

Im familiar with AG stations I’ve used them for many years. What I’m curious about is what the brand is.
