Stop drones before they reach critical sites
Engineered stainless-steel netting systems for energy, data centres, military facilities and industry.
A low-tech solution to a high-tech threat.
Joint development with Ukrainian experts and universities
Battle proven solutions to very difficult security settings, including shielding against Shahed class drones
The problem
Drones are used for attack, sabotage and reconnaissance against sites that cannot be moved. Here the damage is the impact itself, not a delivery.
The threat is changing fast: Large aerial drones already carry small ground drones into position
– soon for espionage or with explosives on board.
Energy infrastructure
Substations, plants and transmission sites.
Data centres
Uptime-critical sites with exposed roofs and yards.
Military facilities
Depots, hangars and staging areas.
Industry
Sites concerned with espionage and sabotage.
EU directive 2022/2557
The CER Directive names fencing and barriers
The Critical Entities Resilience Directive has applied across the EU since October 2024. 17 July 2026 was the deadline for member states to identify their critical entities within energy, transport, banking, water, food, health, digital infrastructure, space and public administration.
Critical entities must “ensure adequate physical protection of their premises and critical infrastructure, duly considering, for example, fencing, barriers, perimeter monitoring tools and routines, detection equipment and access controls”.
Article 13(1)(b)
Each identified entity has nine months from notification to complete its risk assessment.
CUVAS netting is a physical barrier for the one direction a fence does not cover.
The solution
ILLUSTRATION
Scenario 1 · Sacrificial but repairable
Nets that cause explosive airborne, seaborne or underwater drones, including Shahed/Geran-class, to detonate above and away from the intended target. After the explosion, the nets can be repaired.
ILLUSTRATION
Scenario 2 · Impenetrable
Flexible stainless steel cable nets suspended from pylons, steel cables or existing buildings, stopping primarily non-explosive airborne, seaborne or ground based drones.
Stand-alone, or the last physical layer in a layered C-UAV defence
alongside electronic countermeasures and weapon systems.
Where mobility and low weight come first, we also deliver nets in advanced synthetic fibres.
