BSDI, this is Belgium's security and defense industry
1:49
This is an organization representing more than 50 Belgium companies, active in different areas such as security of course and military
2:00
is very important because for a lot of companies they are just focused on security
2:05
product but also a lot of our company members are focused on both sides and of
2:10
course this is not exactly the same approach this is not exactly the same customer
2:15
this is not exactly the same public that's why it's important for us to be here not
2:20
only as company but also as a group of company as an association today we have six
2:26
company exhibit here it's quite good we have small and large company because we have small and large member with different kinds of
2:35
products so we have product barrier we have clothes we have communication
2:41
detection small arms and light weapons if you want to have a delegation from
2:45
foreign countries coming on your booth it's still easier to have it when you
2:50
are together because we are bigger we are quite well known Belgium is quite
2:55
well known for the product on security and military side so it's important to
2:59
to give this idea of one organization. I will say to potential members, it's important to be together
3:08
It's important to be one organization because Belgium is quite complex, as you know, with the different
3:14
level, regional, federal. We have also different approach. And it's important to be the unique representative and a strong one so we can have a voice to
3:25
our authorities to support and protect our members. Take a look on the website and you can of course call the people, you will find the people
3:34
the name of the people, Valerio Tem, who has the business development manager for the BSDI
3:40
of the president and we have also directors Josh Ehren Josh Eron
3:53
Good morning. I'm Nicholas Digartel. I'm VP, a FNUstL VP in charge of sales and market operations on a worldwide basis
4:03
And I'm delighted to introduce to you today the company. So historically speaking and starting 140 years ago, FNSal's core business
4:13
been small caliber firearms and associated ammunition dedicated to the defense market
4:20
Our DNA is based on quality, performance, innovation and diversity. And this applies on the whole FN product and service portfolio
4:32
You may know that FNUst Сам invests a seven person of its annual turnover in R&D
4:41
This allows us to regularly launch new products or variants to existing products
4:47
On a permanent basis, we look at designing and developing our products to always best fit to users
4:53
based on their feedback and even within our Hound development process. In other words, I understand and anticipate the customer requirements or the user expectations is key
5:08
simple as that if I may say. As far as the security market is concerned, FN Hewstall took the decision from 15 years ago
5:17
to entirely concentrate on the US market. More recently, and following the terrorist attacks in Europe
5:27
we launched a stronger strategy to rather develop in this area. And this has led to some, let's say, successful
5:39
achievements. We indeed succeed to achieve some key targets in the market
5:48
We've quite a lot of satisfaction. We got some significant reference with some key law enforcement agencies in Europe
5:57
For instance, at Millipol 2017 two years ago, we introduced a new 9mm pistol, the FN 509
6:07
519, as well a subcompact carbine in calibre .223 based on the FNscar rifle
6:17
Finally, we propose weapons, but also we provide qualified accessories, as well as highly effective training solutions, such as the FN expert for basic marksmanship and tactical training
6:32
That is quick and easy to deploy anytime, anywhere. I am Mr. Perez. I am one of the boss of the company
7:01
I earned this a new company, recent company. We started four years ago
7:07
And with some friends and partners, we are making this company for to start to try one concept of shooting
7:18
And so we are making this kind of product, a thermal site with ballistic computer
7:27
with everything inside for to make a shooting concept We are placing in one device all the technology Many competitors and sometimes very good one they are making one thing
7:43
Here we try to make a complete thing for to make this shooting concept
7:48
Also one of the product is a ballistic laser-range finder. It has a laser range finder. We've integrated ballistic computer
7:58
on the rear display shows the ballistic corrections for the shooter, the elevation and windage
8:06
By tailing fire control system, it means that we have an integrated solution with laser range finder, these two parts, the thermoscope
8:15
We have integrated elevation angle sensor, can't error center. The laser range finder is designed by us, the thermal core designed by us, the ballistic engine also designed by us
8:28
the mechanics, optics, everything is that we are providing integrated solution. The fire control system, it's in a compact size, lightweight
8:41
You have like three in one, laser range finder, ballistic computer and thermal site
8:46
Links two is a compact thermal clip-on for assault rifles. The main features is the range performance, like advanced features such as video recording
8:57
also integrated ballistic computer special power system in a compact size. My name is Mark, Mark Weisberg and I'm the owner of Pittagone
9:17
So Pita Gone is specializing the production of anti-raming barriers, so we are in counter-terror
9:24
We produce barrier in Belgium that will stop cars and and trucks up to 18 tons
9:30
There are several points. First of all, this barrier is mobile. So that means that the barrier is built on wheels
9:37
So that means that our barrier are certified AWA and PASC 68
9:46
But they are also the only barrier in the world certified following the German certification
9:52
There is one event that is new, it's the first time that two major
9:57
cities in Europe put their strength together. These are the city of Lyon and the city of Barcelona
10:06
They put their strengths together with the help of the European Union in order to acquire
10:11
sufficient number of our barrier to protect their citizens and the tourists visiting those cities
10:20
This is a device that we bring now to the market, which is what we call the walk-through. The walk-through
10:27
give the possibility to the people with less mobility or people with a wheelchair
10:34
All the common public to walk through our system while being protected because they walk through
10:43
a distance of 1.2 meters so a car and of course a truck cannot enter into that that will ease
10:52
the flow of pedestrian for the cities. This is something which is
10:57
quite less known, but you have to know that a fair like this will bring a lot of trucks
11:06
a lot of cars, a lot of visitors that have to be screened. It's not only the entrance here that
11:12
have to be secured, but it's a day ahead of the fair that have to be secured. So all trucks
11:19
that are coming to Millipoll will have to go through thein that are organized by the people of Millipol with our barrier with Pitagon Barrier
11:31
Everything is happening here at Millipol. So everything is happening here on our booth
11:38
Better to come, you can see everything for real. St. Texas is a techster company
11:50
existing 110 years and fully integrated with weaving, dyeing, coating, sewing and logistical
12:00
Of course, in the last years, the whole textile has moved a little bit
12:04
and the sewing companies are today abroad. The know-how and everything stays in Belgium
12:11
but some different applications are outside Belgium. Innovations are on one side, this bulletproof giant
12:20
It's patented. It's a jacket who gives you a protection against the main bullets used by the police
12:30
And have a very important, very comfortable wearing. Because the problem from the police people, they have to wear the garments from the morning and the evening
12:40
And at the end of the day they are sweating, they're heavy, and they don't want to wear them anymore
12:46
So that's one of the last developments where maybe a lot of the other people. We're making a lot of success
12:51
On the other side, we develop a new thermal jacket with who is always the same, soft, warm
13:00
lightweight and comfortable. That are the two main. We are also active in tentage
13:06
Centix has a production level from products from 50 grams to 700 grams
13:11
That means we make fabrics, lightweight fabrics like a poncho, and on the other side the fabrics of tentage
13:18
and we make the whole production of the products. That means we are doing the weaving, the dyeing
13:25
and we supply the ready-made product to the customer. So my name is Yohan Goreson
13:35
I'm an area sales manager for the company TeledynaICM. Teledyne ICM is a well-known company that is manufacturing portable X-ray system
13:44
for unintended luggage for EOD, improvised explosive device. explosive device. Teledyne ICM is the only company that is manufacturing completely
13:52
the system. So I mean the X-ray generator and the detector. As you can see here on
13:57
the booth we have different detectors that you can find in different size of
14:01
generators. So we are mainly focusing on the security market here but we're also
14:06
producing X-ray generator for the industrial market but we are not exhibiting
14:11
this at Millipol. We are launching two new products. One X-ray generators that is
14:16
there. It's the smallest and lightest constant potential X-ray generator that has been designed. So it's only a 2.5
14:23
kilo generator and it's really small and light to put in a backpack solution. So to go on the field
14:30
so to check an intended luggage or improvise explosive device. And we have also a new system that is
14:38
there. The C-view is the first handheld live x-ray system that we are developing at Teledyne ICM
14:44
So thanks to a detector that can perform up to 30 frames per seconds
14:50
we have the opportunity to have live video X-ray on the screen here
