Blast Management

At Protexo, we deliver advanced explosive containment and mitigation solutions through our partnership with Mistral Inc., a global leader in blast management technology. Our product range includes specialized Golan’s, Total Containment Vessels (TCVs), and Blast Containment Receptacles (BCRs) — all engineered to neutralize explosive threats safely and effectively.

Golan Series

The Golan’s are robust, multi-purpose blast containment units built for tactical deployment in high-risk environments. Designed to withstand repeated detonations, they are ideal for military EOD teams, special forces, and rapid response units operating in urban, remote, or hostile environments.

  • High-blast and fragmentation containment capacity

  • Suitable for transport and on-site detonation

  • Modular configurations for different threat levels

  • Designed for vehicle mounting and field maneuverability

Whether used in conflict zones or during domestic counterterror operations, Golan’s provide reliable, reusable protection when it matters most.

Total Containment Vessels (TCVs)

TCVs are engineered for maximum containment of high-threat explosives, making them ideal for use by bomb squads, airport security teams, and government facilities. These vessels allow for safe transport, diagnosis, and detonation of IEDs and suspicious packages.

  • Designed to fully contain blast pressure and fragments

  • Can be equipped with robotic integration for remote operation

  • Available in multiple sizes and threat-level ratings

  • Certified for transport by road and aircraft (where applicable)

TCVs are essential in controlled environments where risk must be reduced to near zero, such as high-traffic public venues or diplomatic missions.

Blast Containment Receptacles (BCRs)

BCRs provide discreet yet effective blast mitigation in public spaces. Designed to blend into urban settings like airports, train stations, stadiums, and government buildings, BCRs look like regular waste bins but are built to safely absorb the blast and shrapnel from small explosive devices.

  • Aesthetic, non-threatening design for public integration

  • Ideal for public areas with high foot traffic

  • Minimizes secondary injuries from fragmentation

  • Rapid installation with minimal infrastructure needs

BCRs are a proactive security measure, providing everyday protection without alarming the public.

Standards & Compliance

At Protexo, all our blast management solutions, including Mistral’s Golan’s, TCVs, and BCRs, are developed and selected with strict adherence to international safety standards and explosive safety regulations.

PGS-32 (Publicatiereeks Gevaarlijke Stoffen 32)

PGS-32 is a Dutch guideline that governs the safe storage and handling of explosive substances and articles. It sets requirements for containment, blast mitigation, and safety distances in both civilian and military contexts. Mistral’s blast containment units are engineered to meet or exceed PGS-32 recommendations, supporting safe deployment across Dutch and European critical infrastructure.

DDESB (Department of Defense Explosives Safety Board)

The DDESB provides safety standards for the U.S. Department of Defense concerning the siting, handling, storage, and transport of explosives. Mistral’s products are designed and tested to align with DDESB Technical Papers and guidelines, ensuring they meet stringent military safety criteria for blast resistance, fragment containment, and hazard zoning.

By aligning with both PGS-32 and DDESB standards, Protexo ensures that your blast containment solutions are fully compliant, field-proven, and operationally safe—whether you're protecting civilian infrastructure or operating in high-risk tactical environments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We don’t just supply containment units — we deliver complete threat mitigation solutions backed by world-class engineering, global certifications, and decades of real-world deployment. Whether you need tactical resilience, secure transport, or discreet public safety measures, our Golan’s, TCVs, and BCRs ensure you’re prepared for today’s evolving threats.
