Insensitive Munitions

It is a munition’s ability to withstand impact, shock and heat which makes the difference between an incident and a catastrophe. The only way to obtain knowledge about the sensitivity of your products is to let them face worst-case scenarios and record every reaction. This is what we do. We are the shortest road to absolute truth.
