Allen-Vanguard, a global leader in solutions to mitigate threats from chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive (CBRNE) devices, is showcasing a number of its leading edge products at the 10th Defence Services Asia Exhibition and Conference, DSA 2006.
The event, Asia’s largest defence and security exhibition, is taking place at the APAC Exhibition Centre, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from 24 – 27th April.
Security teams face an unprecedented threat from terrorist activity. The need for evermore sophisticated equipment and pre-emptive security measures is growing. Allen-Vanguard’s products have been developed in close consultation with end users in response to these demands.
All products are currently in use with various authorities around the world, and range from high-risk search tools to Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs):
- ROVs – large and small scale robots for remote access, manipulation and render-safe of both explosive and CBR dispersal devices
- Universal Containment System™ (UCS) – tent-like structure placed over a suspect device and filled with a special foam to mitigate blast and neutralise chem-bio materials
- Decontamination systems – foam-based solutions for neutralising chem–bio materials
- HAL® kits – semi-remote operating equipment for access and manipulation in high risk search and IEDD render safe procedures
- Search equipment – ranging from visual and technical search equipment to special operations search kits
- Electronic Counter Measures (ECM) – “jammers” for IEDD and force protection
“DSA is an important event in Allen-Vanguard’s calendar. The scope for meeting potential customers from the region is enormous and DSA provides us with the ideal venue for exhibiting our extensive product range as well as sharing the wealth of knowledge we hold with these customers,” said Paul Phillips, territory manager – Far East and South East Asia.
“There has been a lot of growth in this geographical area, and it is important that we maintain and improve our reputation year-on-year. DSA gives us an opportunity for face-to-face contact, which is the best way of communicating our message.”
