(United Arab Emirates, February 21 to 25, 2021 – Stand 07-B44)

A French industrial company established in 2003, Ouvry specializes in the creation, engineering, production and maintenance of CBRN personal body and respiratory protection systems and decontamination solutions. It offers innovative products intended for all intervention operators: soldiers or gendarmes, firefighters or emergency operators, first responders from the armed forces, public or civil security forces, health, industry, sites infrastructure and public transport.

The label « Used by French armed forces » awarded to EPIFOS combat suit.

On January 28, 2021, OUVRY obtained the label “Used by the French armed forces” for its EPIFOS combat suit. This filtering suit protects against CBRN agents in liquid, vapor and aerosol form for 24 hours, according to NATO recommendations. Lightweight, ergonomic and very robust, it provides the user with optimal comfort and protection adapted to operational needs. It allows rapid heat dissipation and reduces the risk of heatstroke. It is therefore particularly suitable for exposure to vapor and liquid risks, long-term missions, hot and humid environments as well as to confined spaces.
