A 25sqm CCS can be deployed by 2 people in less than 1 hour and is ready to use in only 24 hours.
The compressive structure of CCS has been modelled to be covered with sand or earth (berming) to provide protection against small arms fire and shell fragments.
CCS concrete shells have good thermal properties. When buried they provide excellent insulation and a very large thermal mass.
CCS are far more durable than tenting with a minimum design life of 10 years.
The sealed plastic inner of a CCS, means it can be delivered sterile; vastly increasing frontline medical capability from day one of a crisis.
Concrete Cloth is a ceramic and will not burn. Each shelter is lined with a flame retardant fibre reinforced polyethylene inner with a B1 (DIN 4102-01 05/98) fire rating.
CCS can be fitted with a combined forced air / inflation unit and decontamination module to provide full spectrum CBRN protection.
The hard shell and lockable doors of a CCS provide a level of security not possible with soft skinned structures, protecting stores, equipment and personnel.
CCS provide all the benefits of a permanent structure without the associated cost and time delays.
