Aigis Transport Protection from Explosions

May 2006 – Jane’s Defence Weekly

Aigis Blast Protection Ltd, World Leader in explosion protection, is seeing a massive increase in demand for its detonator and grenade carriers, which provide the safest way of transporting explosives. Thanks to their leading TABREshield technology, Aigis explosives carriers effectively contain any potential risk from detonators and grenades, especially sympathetic detonation.

Aigis TABREshield technology treats the problem of blast in a totally innovative way: it actually absorbs almost all the energy of the explosion thus massively reducing the damaging effects including even fragmentation. TABREshield ultimately helps protect lives, assets, and facilities as well as ensures operational continuity.

The grenade carriers transport up to 1.5kg of armed explosives per tray.

The detonator carriers can transport up to 18 detonators, they are a NATO standard stock item and are compliant with new EU regulations.

Both types of carriers have a UN Hazard Classification 1.4S.

Aigis products are being used worldwide, in airports, railways, police and military applications, and increasingly in public buildings and open areas.

The flexibility and versatility of TABREshield is immense and you can find all currently available applications on www.aigis.co.uk. You can also enquire about new tailor-made solutions by phoning +44 (0) 1788 557 180 or by emailing blast-protection@aigis.co.uk.
