Our Expertise
SAS DEFENSE NRBC-G is a company built on more than
thirty years of experience in risk management, including NRBC threats.
Our qualified experts in NRBC defense recommend:
During armed conflicts: plans for the protection and evacuation of the civilian population not equipped with protective equipment and under threat of chemical attack, plans for chemical detection or decontamination, plans for monitoring the development of nuclear or chemical contamination on the ground, training of specialized NRBC teams, NBC emergency exercises.
Outside of armed conflict, in various countries: prevention plans for chemical and biological terrorist threats in major cities, and risk management strategies in the event of technological accidents.
Global Assessment and Management of NRBC Risks: Prevention and Protection
We are able to identify and quantify NRBC risks anywhere in the world, based on multiple criteria specific to our evaluation system, and to provide all necessary prevention and protection solutions. In addition to managing these risks, we also handle crisis management across all types of threats.
NRBC Risks and Threats
The nature of NRBC risks and threats must be distinguished in order to better prevent and mitigate their effects.
The NRBC threat refers to the acquisition, possession, potential use, and intent to use NRBC weapons or materials by an "enemy" with malicious intent or for the purpose of aggression. This involves the use and proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD): nuclear weapons (including various effects such as endo- and exo-atmospheric detonations); so-called "dirty bombs" loaded with radioactive substances; biological weapons (via the dispersion of viruses, bacteria, or toxins); and chemical munitions (deployed by heating, shells, rockets, missiles, or spraying).
The NRBC risk refers to a potential danger that may be triggered either unintentionally (due to natural disasters, accidents, or collateral effects of armed conflict) or intentionally (through malicious or terrorist acts). This risk is inherent in nuclear industrial facilities (due to potential radiation or radiological contamination); radioactive sources (such as those used in medical facilities); biological risks (especially in medical laboratories or pharmaceutical installations); health-related risks (such as epidemics); chemical industrial sites (with potential aggravation due to explosiveness, flammability, toxicity, or corrosiveness of substances); certain military munitions (including chemical shells or depleted uranium); and the transportation of hazardous materials.
