Everything for a Peaceful World
Supposing that everyone wants to have a peaceful world with everything that goes ahead with this supposition one does not have to think about anything as security. Security would be the most natural thing if this supposition were true. Reality and media show us that peace is not the condition of everyday life. People keep quarrelling about tiny details of contracts and media show us images of wars on a daily basis. People tend to take these examples for their own situation; they check eventual scenarios for their own security.
One cannot blame people for this behaviour: They follow their intuition rationally and want to be protected from early death. One can see this as a part of biological evolution of Homo sapiens sapiens: He wants to protect himself against death like every being but protects himself with intelligent solutions. Homo sapiens sapiens is interested in prospects of possible threatening and wants solutions against it.
Get a Shelter Equipped
Lunor helps human beings in protecting their environments against natural and human generated menace. They produce intelligent solutions for different threatening sources: They produce the whole shelter equipment including not only for security technologies that are used in shelters but also for the comfort of the people who have to live in shelters. Provisory toilets are included in this group of equipment as well as beds for the worst case. As one can see people from Lunor want to make daily life as easy as possible just by thinking about potential issues.
Blast Doors and Butterflies
Nobody would think about blasts in times when nothing happens outside, when butterflies are in the air and one can hear birds twitter. In such times one could not think that a blast door would be used anytime. This way of thinking is very usual. This is also why it is important that there are specialists who think about secure shelters everyday.
Filters for NBC
They are passionate to talk about their new NBC Filtration Unit that has taken a good step in development. The volume could be increased significantly. Likewise bigger rooms can have filtered air. Filtered air is important because of increasement of use of chemical and biological weapons. Even if they have existed and were used in World War I it is important to still improve the abilities of the technique that helps us to protect against harmful technologies.
Protection against Explosion with Valve
Where explosions are a thing of daily business (or could become part of it) valves are needed that protect against these explosions. Normally one cannot integrate these valves in every part of a building but it is important to integrate them in a shelter. The easiest way of integrating an Explosion Protection Valve is to integrate it already while the progress of constructing a building.
Filtering Blasts away
A whole shelter equipment does also need NBC Ventilation Units. The ventilation units make the environment feel good: Air in a closed room gets polluted very fast. One needs to refresh the air constantly. Issues that handle with blast can be handled by a blast damper.
