NATO-STANDARD PROTECTION FROM MKE AGAINST CHEMICAL, BIOLOGICAL, RADIOLOGICAL AND NUCLEAR THREATS

With centuries old experience and a strong production infrastructure, Turkish defence industry company Makine ve Kimya Endüstrisi (MKE) not only delivers high-technology weapon systems and ammunition for friendly and allied forces, but also ensures the highest level of personnel safety on the battlefield through its in- house developed solutions against Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) threats.

Through its R&D laboratories, MKE develops fully NATO-compliant solutions to overcome CBRN risks with the production of high-technology protective clothing. Designed as multi-layer systems using active carbon technology, these protective garments provide advanced protection even under the most demanding operational conditions.

Developed on the basis of two functional layer technologies and four different models, the equipment offer eight distinct product configurations, delivering a flexible structure tailored to diverse mission profiles and user requirements.

HIGH-TECH PROTECTION FROM MKE

CBRN Nefes Mask: With low aerosol permeability and an anti-fog panoramic visor, the mask ensures uninterrupted respiratory protection without compromising visibility, operating reliably in temperatures ranging from -30 °C to +50 °C.

CBRN Protective Gloves: Featuring high chemical resistance and enhanced fingertip sensitivity, the gloves help maintain operational control even in adverse conditions such as rain, mud and low temperatures.

CBRN Protective Overboot: Thanks to their chemically resistant structure and adjustable design, the boot covers support personnel mobility and safety on wet surfaces, contaminated terrain and under harsh field conditions.

The specially engineered protective garments create an effective barrier against warfare agents in vapour, liquid and particulate forms, while being designed to deliver high levels of ergonomics and freedom of movement during tactical operations.

Taking demanding field conditions into account, critical contact areas such as the knees, elbows, back and high-wear zones are specially reinforced. The garments provide safe and long-term use in extreme heat, severe cold and challenging environmental conditions.

Designed with varying mission profiles and user needs in mind, the double-layer protection applied to the wrist and ankle areas provides additional security against liquid and vapour threats. In addition, the emergency evacuation carry handle integrated into the back section supports rapid intervention and casualty evacuation in operational environments.
