Public Safety - BCR Trash Containers:
Mistral's BCR containers combine a high strength outer steel shell with a patented inner compressive layer to provide security, protection and safety to the surrounding public. The compressive layer is designed to absorb the major blast energy and resist fragments. The outer shell contains any remaining lateral blast energy and fragmentation. Residual blast energy is vented upwards away from the public, keeping the receptacle un-penetrated.
Mistral BCR containers have been extensively tested by government agencies and are in use at many government and public facilities nationwide, including airports, train stations, subways, courthouses, office buildings, and embassies. Currently in use by: The Pentagon, Metro-North Railroad, Amtrak, MARTA, Dulles International Airport, Chicago O'Hare, Memphis, St. Paul and Salt Lake City airports, Phoenix Courthouse, Holocaust Museum, New Jersey Transit, Fairfax County Court, Oklahoma, and many other public places. In addition, our BCR containers are placed worldwide, including France, Spain, Israel, England, Turkey.
In addition to its unsurpassed technical specifications, Mistral Semi-Vented BCR containers are engineered to provide a highly effective means of litter control. An internal hinged lid with lock provides a secure trash container with easy service and minimum maintenance. Models range from 21 to 40 gallons of trash capacity.
MSI's blast containment products are an established blast mitigating / protection tool within today's marketplace. BCR waste receptacles are being installed and utilized by numerous US and International Airports as well as being used within many other transportation venues, government facilities, and other critical infrastructure locations.
New standard models have no operational lid and are intended to stay intact during detonation. Containers with operational lids are available upon request.
Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD):
The ARC-5 container is the latest in Mistral's line of explosive containment vessels. Designed and used for Explosive Ordnance Disposal and civilian bomb disposal, the ARC-5 can safely contain 11 pounds of TNT EOD with repeated detonations. It will limit the dispersal of chemical and biological agents, mitigating the risk of such devices. The hydraulic door is operated either manually or electrically and has an opening diameter of 21.6 inches. The ARC-5 can easily be trailer mounted and towed at highway speeds. The ARC-5 can also be configured with remote operational capability.
