EXPLOSIVES UNIT
The Unwanted Truth
The increasing prevalence of explosive incidents at live events poses a significant threat to public safety, as evidenced by the ATF's report of explosions in 2023, including 320 bombings that resulted in injuries and fatalities. As accessibility to explosive materials grows, it becomes increasingly crucial for authorities and event organizers to enhance security measures and awareness to mitigate these risks and protect attendees.
​
With the escalation of security threats, the demand for enhanced protection has grown significantly, leading to a rise in security personnel. When it comes to handling explosives, it’s crucial to rely on professionals who can be trusted to perform effectively, as there's often only one chance to get it right. Choose a team that holds the competition accountable and actively addresses the vulnerabilities within the industry.
