Uncontested
world leader in the field of Cast Plastic Bonded eXplosive
(PBX) charges, with more than 40 years of experience, EURENCO
offers a wide range of Cast PBX solutions for Air, Naval
and Land Forces applications: missile warheads, general
purpose and penetrator bombs, underwater weapons, mortar,
tank and artillery shells, grenades, etc.

Charges
for Insensitive Munitions:
Nowadays,
standards of warfare mandate the use of Insensitive Munitions,
less vulnerable to accidental or  intentional
stimuli. Faced with this technological challenge, and
in order to meet the Armed Forces’ new requirements
for personnel and combat platform safety, EURENCO I.M.
Department developed a range of Cast PBX charges for Insensitive
Munitions. The best industrial solution for all I.M.,
they bring significant advantages: Increased Life Duration
- no more cracks or exudations; Safer handling - no more
fatal accidents involving ammunition; Low Life Cycle Cost
- improved safety in logistics, no maintenance.
In addition to standard manufacturing processes for Cast
PBX charges, EURENCO developed and patented a unique revolutionary
process, called the “bi-component process”,
for volume production and loading of mortar, tank and
artillery shells.

Reactive
armour kits:
Both
designer and manufacturer, EURENCO also develops ERA
add-on tiles to meet the Armed Forces’ new challenges.
The missions of armoured vehicles as defensive or
interposition forces in urban operations make them
increasingly vulnerable targets, and require their
enhanced protection. Based on Cast PBX technology,
EURENCO Reactive Armour Kits are extremely efficient
against RPG’s and AP projectiles. |

Base
Bleed Grains:
EURENCO’s range of activities also covers the
development and production of base bleed grains. By
reducing the drag of the shell during the ballistic
trajectory, base bleed components answer to modern
artillery system requirements for extended range ammunition.
Using an exclusive pressing technology, EURENCO’s
base bleed units are adaptable to all types of shells
and calibres. |

Demolition
explosives :
EURENCO
also manufactures plastic explosives in different
packages for all types of demolition, cutting and
breaching operations. A new range, based on Cast
PBX technology, provides low vulnerability, excellent
thermal behaviour and enhanced performance. Selected
in September 2009 as the preferred bidder by the
UK Ministry of Defence, EURENCO was awarded a contract
in April 2010, for the supply of the new British
plastic explosive -PE7- which will progressively
replace the former PE4. |
