OWR is a sole source provider for NBC Protection, Detection and Decontamination Equipment.
The highest risk of an NBC attack today is from local and international terrorism. However, the danger of an NBC accident happening at a major production facility such as a petro-chemical plant, should not be underestimated.
Possible targets are:
- airports
- train stations
- exhibitions
- public buildings
- government buildings
- sport stadiums
- harbours
- private companies
- radio/TV stations
- water reservoirs
- police/military installations
- hospitals
- schools/kindergarten
The availability and production of NBC weapons cannot be
controlled as in the case of conventional weapons.
Realizing this, many countries have started to take serious measures for the protection of civilians and military against the effect of NBC contamination.
Also the increase in the number of nuclear and petro-chemical plants, as well as developments in biological sciences, has increased the risk of an industrial NBC disaster.
In order to combat this growing threat of NBC contamination, the development of detection and decontamination systems is vital.
