DefenCell – complete Force Protection

DefenCell is a versatile range of Force Protection products and systems designed to provide Perimeter Security, Blast and Ballistic protection, Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM), Ranges & CQB, UXO containment as well as Environmental applications including Flood Protection, Ground Stabilisation and Containment berms.

DefenCell Barriers

Designed by Engineers for Engineers, and developed by J & S Franklin and Terram, DefenCell Barriers meet the need for a lightweight, compact, easily deployed range of defensive protection systems.

DefenCell Barriers combine established geocell design with the latest geotextile construction technology to provide an innovative, practical and versatile system. DefenCell Barriers have been successfully used to provide force protection to military personnel and facilities in a number of demanding operational situations.

Locally available fill materials can be used, including wind blown sand, and are easily compacted to give the Barriers structural strength and stability. The system is very compact and can be stored and hand carried for rapid deployment in emergency and operational conditions

DefenCell MAC

DefenCell MAC® is a new range of protective welded mesh metal gabions lined with geotextile and supplied in several standard sizes including the US Expeditionary Barrier System (EBS) . MAC® gabions are filled with earth, sand or other locally available fill materials and provide ballistic protection, blast mitigation and HVM vehicle barriers. MAC can also be used for environmental applications and is ideal for flood protection.

DEFENCELL MAC® is constructed using the highest quality materials to established and tested standards by the world’s leading manufacturer of gabion structures, using heavily galvanised welded mesh panels and corner coils combined with a heavy duty geotextile lining material created from UV resistant polymer fibre using the same advanced technology as the proven DefenCell Barriers.

DefenCell Profile 300 HVM

DEFENCELL Profile 300 HVM Protection System is a textile, cellular, containment system which can be filled with various materials (soil, sand, gravel and small rocks) to build a wide variety of structures for perimeter security and HVM protection.

The layered construction technique combined with the smaller 300mm cell size, provides a high degree of versatility in installation, integrating the barrier with the natural contours of the site. Layers can be added/removed to absorb undulations in the ground surface to provide a level topped berm or follow the landscape for a more natural appearance. The geotextile runs lengthways through the structure providing considerable additional longitudinal strength and protection.

Profile 300 has been successfully tested as a vehicle crash barrier to UK PAS68 standards.

DefenCell Ranges & CQB

DefenCell Barriers and MAC are ideal for constructing and upgrading firing ranges, CQB shoothouses and other live fire training facilities. The completely non-metallic construction of the Barriers minimises ricochet hazards whilst providing realistic and durable structures.

DefenCell products are approved by NRA in US and TAS in UK and proven for range & CQB construction in US, UK, Europe, Middle East and Africa.

DefenCell Flood Protection

Barriers and MAC have both been fully tested as flood barriers by the US Corps of Engineers R&D Centre (ERDC) in Mississippi. DefenCell has been successfully deployed to protect communities from over 3’ of flood water and a mile of DefenCell was installed in less than 36 hours by unskilled local labour.

DefenCell UXO Containment

DEFENCELL is ideal for building containment structures for safe UXO disposal. The completely non-metallic design ensures no secondary shrapnel while the cellular construction dissipates energy and absorbs blast and debris effectively. The structures are quick and easy to install as well as being simple to remove and dispose, and the light weight units are easily transported to remote locations.

A range of standard designs for different size UXO have been tested and hold DDESB approval in the USA
