We deal with the protection of people, animals and properties against the effects of weapons of mass destruction.
There are many myths circulated surrounding weapons of mass destruction (WMD), most of which concern nuclear weapons. People who know nothing at all about the effects of nuclear weapons are spreading rumors that a nuclear war would annihilate mankind and that it is not possible to be effectively protected against nuclear weapons. Various freely available programs on the internet, which only pretend to “simulate” the effects of nuclear explosions on cities, also contribute to the spread of these senseless conclusions. In fact, appropriate protection against weapons of mass destruction is relatively simple, if you know what to do.
The events of recent years are clear evidence of the direction of developments in the world, mainly thanks to The West and its allies. The main media however try to convince people of the exact opposite. All we need to add to this: “Those who want to see will see.”
In recent years in particular, the number of people who perceive the situation in the world as serious and who have decided to act has rightfully started to rapidly increase. They buy protective masks, build various shelters or at least plan to make an improvised shelter, collect various supplies etc. With only minor exceptions, they only have general information about suitable protection against weapons of mass destruction, and therefore they usually have a false sense of security that they are well prepared. In reality however, this material preparation for the vast majority of them does not even mean half a success and can be considered insufficient, practically regardless of the amount of money spent.
We offer help with preparation aimed at protection against weapons of mass destruction, amongst other things we offer several types of specialized consultancy services. These consultations are focused on practical information. Therefore they also include recommendations for certain situations, which most people in preparation do not see as problematic, due to the underestimation of the importance of the circumstances and insufficient knowledge about protection against weapons of mass destruction. In addition, the recommendations are made with regards to how we ourselves would proceed in the nominated area on the basis of the information received. We also explain, with respect to some of the recommendations, why we would use one specific procedure and not another.
Consultancy concerning protection against WMD
This type of consultation is focused more on general questions from the area of protection against weapons of mass destruction, questions which do not require complex calculations and the supply of a range of initial information, as is the case with the other consultancy services. It also helps, for example, to assess the suitability of the various steps taken, or intended to be taken within the preparation process, and how it would be possible to improve them if necessary.
Consultancy concerning air filtration
Air filtration is not as simple as it seems to be at the first glance. It is not enough just to have filter ventilation equipment with several spare filters, plus also enough fuel for the generator if need be. Improper filtration can especially lead to a significant reduction in the lifespan of the filters, (in extreme cases, the lifespan of the filters can be shortened to just a few minutes), or to an increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in a shelter to above the safe level.
In this consultancy, we focus upon recommendations on how to extend the lifespan of filters, especially in conditions during the use of weapons of mass destruction, how long the air should be filtered and with what intervals, for how long the shelter can be completely cut off from the external air supply (isolation mode), etc. It also includes consultancy concerning ventilation without filter ventilation equipment (FVE).
Consultancy concerning ventilation without filter ventilation equipment (FVE)
Under the conditions during the use of weapons of mass destruction, the air should be filtered. Those who have no such option, must let unfiltered outdoor air into the shelter, and are dependent therefore only on ventilation. Especially in such a situation, it is very important to know when and how to ventilate, how long to ventilate and for how long it is safe to stay in the shelter without ventilation (isolation mode). This key information is part of this consultancy.
Consultancy concerning the provision of drinking water during the use of WMD
When weapons of mass destruction are being used, it could often be relatively difficult to find a suitable source of water in nature that could be easily adapted for drinking. For example, disinfection of the water could be completely inadequate, likewise only boiling it. At the water source, there should be a high chance that civilians could easily prepare drinking water from it in field conditions.
In this consultancy, we solve not only which surrounding water sources would be appropriate to use (at different times after the WMD attack), but also how to treat this water for drinking and how to subsequently store it.
Consultancy concerning the effects of nuclear explosions
On the internet in particular, there are various very simplified instructions on what should be done in the imminent risk of a nuclear attack, during the nuclear explosion itself and shortly after it. However, they all are missing the vital detail, which is under what conditions they should be applied. Although they may help people in some circumstances, in others however they could mean certain death.
It is important to note that there is not and there can not be any general recommendation as to what should be done during and after a nuclear explosion. What one should do under given conditions depends upon many circumstances. From the point of view of short-term protection against nuclear weapons, it is enough to follow a few basic recommendations, but as far as long-term protection is concerned, the situation is much more complicated, especially if there is heavy radioactive contamination in the area. Heavy radioactive contamination of the terrain by local fallout would, of course, also affect people in well-equipped fallout shelters, although usually not to the same extent as in the case of people in improvised shelters.
During the consultation on the effects of nuclear explosions, we focus on both short-term and long-term protection. We focus mainly on the improvised shelter, but even for people with more or less high-quality fallout shelters, it can also be a valuable and in some circumstances indispensable tool.

Zeus, manual filter ventilation equipment
If weapons of mass destruction were used, it would be appropriate to remove any pollutants from the air by the means of filter ventilation equipment, most of which require electricity for their operation. If it was not possible to provide enough electricity, the filter ventilation equipment could become inoperable, although it can frequently still be operated, mainly by turning a crank. The operation of turning the crank is very exhausting and it is necessary to provide enough people to take turns, which ordinary families cannot afford. Therefore, we have developed one such type of filter ventilation equipment that is independent of electricity and that can be also operated by children above 5–6 years. The principle of the main drive is based upon weight transfer and turning the crank only contributes to the even operation of the device, and therefore it is so easy to operate it. We are also the manufacturers of this equipment.
There are many differences between protective masks, but the biggest difference is probably whether the mask is designed to allow the intake of fluids or not. It is not a very good idea to use a protective mask without the possibility of drinking during conditions of the deployment of weapons of mass destruction. This is because overheating of the body can represent a greater danger than an attack with weapons of mass destruction. For this reason, we offer protective masks for adults only with the possibility of drinking. We also offer children's “protective” masks, (but they do not have facilities for receiving fluids), and half masks.
A protective mask requires a supply of high-quality protective filters. These filters differ in the range of pollutants they can capture, in weight, their threaded connections etc. Since filters from different manufacturers frequently differ significantly even in terms of quality, we only sell filters manufactured by SIGMA Výzkumný a vývojový ústav, s.r.o. (SIGMA Research and Development Institute, Ltd.). Furthermore, we consider it important to mention that each of these filters undergoes a thorough quality control check. We offer both protective combined filters MOF-6 or OF-02 CBRN, and particulate filters P3 R.
