Environics Awarded Multi-million Euro Contract with the Indian Army for CWA Detection
Abingdon, MD, United States - Aug 18, 2009 - The Finnish high-tech security firm, Environics Oy, has signed a multi-million Euro agreement with the Indian army. The deal, which includes the handheld ChemPro100i ("ChemPro100 improved") multi-purpose Chemical Warfare Agent (CWA) detectors and other devices, strengthens the Mikkeli, Finland-based Environics' position in Asia and especially in the rapidly-growing Indian markets. "We are expecting significant sales for the ChemPro100i detector as well as our other products in the near future. This deal strengthens our ability to be a supplier of individual detectors as well as complex networked systems" says Mr. Veli-Matti Lahti, VP Sales & Marketing of Environics Oy. The Indian Army arrived at its decision after a lengthy international open bidding competition and rigorous technical testing. Environics defeated much larger international CBRN companies in these tests. The customer was impressed with the technical performance of the ChemPro100i, the ease of use as well as the minimal operating costs over the lifespan of the detector. Environics products are produced in Mikkeli. The delivery of these products will take place this year.
Environics makes gas & vapor detection products & turn-key CBRN detection networks for civilian & military defense. We protect individuals, buildings, metros, cities and nations from CBRN threats.
