3DX-Ray, specialists in X-ray imaging technology for the security and military markets, has announced the launch of a 3DX range of EOD Bomb Disposal Suits. They are the 3DX-EOD Bomb Disposal Suit and the 3DX-Search Suit.
The 3DX-EOD Bomb Disposal Suit is a contemporary up-armoured suit offering arguably the best value and highest level of protection. Designed from the outset to be 3E (Economic, Efficient & Effective) compliant, the 3DX suit arguably provides the best value and the highest level of protection of any comparable bomb suit currently manufactured, offering maximum comfort and flexibility to the operator.
The 3DX-Search Suit has been designed specifically for personnel involved in the searching for, and clearing of, suspected terrorist explosive devices. This suit does not offer the higher protection of the EOD Bomb Disposal Suit, it is much lighter in weight, provides all-round 360° protection, whilst at the same time being comfortable to wear and allowing virtually unrestricted movement.
3DX-Ray’s Interim CEO, Vince Deery said, “We are talking to both military and civilian EOD customers on a daily basis, and it became clear from these conversations, that with so many suppliers of equipment available on the market, it is difficult for operators to identify what equipment and suppliers meet the necessary standards of safety and performance that is required, in what are real life and death operational scenarios.”
“There was an obvious need for a whole range of EOD equipment from a ‘trusted supplier’. We, therefore, started working with our partners to develop a range of 3DX EOD suits that meet the internationally recognised Standard NATO Agreement (STANAG) 2920.”
