Explosive Storage Vessels
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.
Explosive threats can arise in locations where there is little time to establish a permanent safety perimeter. Mistral Golan systems provide a robust containment solution for the safe handling, storage and transport of explosive devices and materials.
The Golan range is available in different sizes and configurations to accommodate different operational requirements. The systems are designed to provide protection against blast and fragmentation while allowing explosive hazards to be isolated from personnel and surrounding areas.
Golan systems are suited to military EOD teams, police bomb disposal units, government facilities and other organisations dealing with explosive threats. Their robust construction and reusable design make them suitable for both permanent installations and situations where a flexible containment solution is required.

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.
