Protect against <strong>CBRNE</strong><br />
threats and save lives<br />
Government bodies and militaries around the world all face the challenge<br />
of protecting themselves and <strong>society</strong> at large against the consequences of a<br />
chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosives (<strong>CBRNE</strong>) attack.<br />
Terrorism poses a real threat <strong>to</strong> our security and the safety of troops,<br />
civilians and critical infrastructure. It has never been more important<br />
than now <strong>to</strong> be able <strong>to</strong> trust the product in your hand <strong>to</strong> detect and identify<br />
suspicious substances <strong>to</strong> respond <strong>to</strong> a <strong>CBRNE</strong> threat as quickly as possible.<br />
It is paramount that militaries and security agencies are equipped with<br />
the correct <strong>solutions</strong> that enable them <strong>to</strong> carry out their mission as safely<br />
as possible. Our products incorporate the latest technologies combined<br />
with simple, intuitive interfaces that make it easy for the user <strong>to</strong> operate in<br />
times of pressure, where reliable, rapid results are needed <strong>to</strong> make quick<br />
decisions.<br />
Around the clock, around the world we provide the capability <strong>to</strong> protect<br />
people, infrastructure, civil and military facilities from wide-ranging<br />
<strong>CBRNE</strong> threats.
Take out the guess-work<br />
In any <strong>CBRNE</strong> incident it is impossible <strong>to</strong> positively identify potentially<br />
dangerous substances such as vapours, powders, gases, liquids, pastes<br />
and gels using senses such as sight and smell. The need <strong>to</strong> have confidence<br />
in a product that provides fast, accurate results, in a major <strong>CBRNE</strong> incident<br />
is as important as your respira<strong>to</strong>r. Survivability is key under <strong>CBRNE</strong> threat<br />
environments. Early warning alerts can save lives and allow users <strong>to</strong><br />
operate without restrictive, full protective equipment.<br />
Our complete <strong>CBRNE</strong> <strong>solutions</strong> utilise innovative technologies that take<br />
the guess-work out of identifying dangerous substances. All our products<br />
are tested rigorously <strong>to</strong> be certified <strong>to</strong> CE and MIL-STD 810 standards, <strong>to</strong><br />
ensure their suitability for harsh conditions and high temperatures likely <strong>to</strong><br />
be faced during operations in battlefield and security conditions.<br />
Our science and technology specialists understand that soldiers need the<br />
latest technology in rugged products which minimize inconvenience and<br />
allow them <strong>to</strong> carry out successful missions in the field. That’s why Smiths<br />
Detection is dedicated <strong>to</strong> continually developing products that are intuitive,<br />
smaller, lightweight and simple <strong>to</strong> use.<br />
Increase survivability under<br />
<strong>CBRNE</strong> threat environments.
Our comprehensive range of product <strong>solutions</strong><br />
meet a wide variety of requirements for the<br />
detection and identification of <strong>CBRNE</strong> threats.<br />
