DREHTAINER - Protective Vehicle and Container Solutions

As a competent and innovative manufacturer of protective container solutions, based upon experience and close contact with our customers, DREHTAINER offers custom-tailored reliable solutions, such as our multi-role platform with zero-shock systems, for vertical (AT) and horizontal blast (IED) protection for armoured vehicles and containers.

DREHTAINER focuses its design work on side blast-resistance, and resistance against AT mines and ballistic protection.

TACTICAL VEHICLE PROTECTION

We upgrade existing armoured vehicles and truck cabins with our 'zero shock system' to guarantee less injuries (approximately 0% during a shock wave) and to minimise physical traumas. A test programme for Boxer and Yak is under contract.

PROTECTED MOBILE CONTAINERS

The DREHTAINER protective mobile containers are designed for use on trucks or trailers or discharged on the ground for the following purposes (along with a multi-role platform):

• Personnel transport containers (for 16 to 20 persons)
• Ambulances for two to six stretchers
• Mobile rescue containers
• Protected communication shelters
• Independent surveillance post

PROTECTIVE CONTAINER SYSTEMS AND SPECIAL CONTAINERS

We design and manufacture protective container systems and special containers for military and civil purposes. All container systems like the tactical operation centre, the watch tower, the check point container, the mobile shelter and the protected accommodation container, as well as ballistic protectors for camps and the medical rescue container, have been tested and are already in service.

All DREHTAINER protective container solutions have been tested by several authorities; texts which were passed successfully. Our impulse-free floor system guarantees a total shock decoupling in case of mine detonations and side blasts. DREHTAINER's main features in the field of defence are below.

TACTICAL OPERATION CENTRE (TOC)

The Tactical Operation Centre (TOC) is a modular building, built up of several special 20ft containers. Side and front wall elements can be removed to combine numerous containers. They are coupled, weatherproof and supplied with over-pressure ventilation.

The TOC can be used as a:

• Mission control centre
• Medical centre
• Operation centre
• Armoured accommodation centre
• Communication centre
• Surveillance centre

We have customers in Germany, the Netherlands and Australia for these products.

WATCH TOWER

The DREHTAINER watch tower is used for surveillance and protection purposes, and favoured for camps and military installations with limited access. They can be used in combination with ballistic protectors.

The watch tower in 20ft configuration is erected on one frontal wall-element to raise height. The turret is protected and outfitted with embrasures. The 10ft watch tower can be mounted on top of another container. Two 10ft watch towers can be coupled to reach the 20ft ISO dimensions for transport.

PROTECTIVE THREE-IN-ONE CONTAINER

DREHTAINER has developed a new three-in-one container designed for military and civil purposes. The system is extremely easy to handle and absolutely reliable. It can be used as an emergency room or for other medical installations, as a training facility, a kitchen container, or a mission control centre. It can be protected according to STANAG level three.
