Ammunition and Explosives Logistic and Disposal Services

Obsolete stockpile of bulk explosives and ammuntion awaiting disposal

The Centre for Homeland Security is proud of its technical and practical expertise in destroying unwanted explosives and ammunition over many years in the UK and around the World.  This is a service provided to both Military and commercial organisations who wish to manage the logistics of unwanted, shelf life expired or obsolete stockpiles of bulk explosives and ammunition.

CHS has the ability to provide full logistic and technical solutions to breakdown, dispose, or demilitarize any type of explosive or military grade ammunition, pyrotechnics or ordnance.  Working with accredited ex military and commercial explosives engineers and logistic partners, CHS can inspect and assist with preparations for transportation to our disposal or storage sites where explosive engineers will create cost effective, environmentally friendly, and HSE approved disposal solutions.  A key feature being the subseuent reuse or recycling of explosives, containers and packaging, making CHS's service exremely environmentally friendly.

CHS is particularly proud that it can conduct this unique service using sole UK facilities if preferred, though it has, and can deliver disposal services overseas if required or if transportation costs are a driver.

For customers who have particular military, commercial explosives or ammunition disposal requirements, CHS can also offer a design consultancy service, to assist them with developing their own solutions if preferred.

Solutions include breakdown dismantling, burning or high order demolition, with subsequent processing of any and all residue.

All demilitarization processes and explosives disposals conducted by CHS are designed to meet the required UK standards and legal requirements for safety and environmental considerations, or higher, to meet local or other National Standards if they apply.
