BLAST PROTECTION FOR AMMUNITION STORAGE ROOMS

Ammunition storage rooms are prone to unforeseen calamities. To ensure protection of the surrounding facility and premises, the walls had to be blast proofed. Blast protection coatings have proven to drastically reduce the aftermath effects of a blast, which are caused by energy forces and pressure impulses. It is used to prevent the flying of glass particles, debris and collapsing of structures as a result of an explosion.

DELTAShield HIP 1000 (High Impact Protection) is a premium, high performance elastomeric formulation designed to absorb blast shock waves and capture blast fragmentation and shrapnel. This unique formulation provides incredible strength and elongation properties far in excess of standard polyurethane lining systems.

DELTAShield HIP 1000 displays excellent elongation properties and very high tensile strength giving it the ability to “stretch” and absorb shock waves whilst still resisting rupturing.

DELTAShield HIP 1000 was used to protect the concrete walls at various thicknesses depending on the type of material storage.
