From exhibition floor to real projects: an autumn update from Nordic Deployment

This autumn we met hundreds of people at DALO in Denmark, at our exhibitions in Turkey and at MSPO in Poland. We showed our systems inflated and ready to walk into, and we had a lot of good conversations.

Now those conversations are turning into real projects. Some of them are big, and they cover defence and civil aviation from Europe to Asia-Pacific.

Here’s what we’re working on right now:

Civil aviation: We’re working on a tender for one of the world’s biggest aviation companies. The tender is for hangars where they can repair aircraft engines. We’ve also had a request from Turkish Airlines for hangar systems big enough to repair four aircraft models from Airbus A321 neto all the way up to the Airbus 777. Our hangars were built for military use. Now commercial aviation is seeing what they can do: you get maintenance capacity where you need it and when you need it, without waiting years for a permanent building.

Germany: We’re working with German Special Forces. Units like these need equipment that’s light, quick to deploy and completely reliable, so this is the kind of work we build our products for.

Australia: We have a major project underway for the Australian forces. Our infrastructure is designed in Norway, and it’s built to perform on the other side of the world in a very different climate.

Vietnam: We’re developing a large-scale cabin system for the Vietnamese market. It gives you modular living and working space that can be set up quickly and is designed for heat, humidity and scale.

Bangladesh: We’ve started working with Bangladesh, which is another market where rapid deployment matters.

Thailand: In November we’ll meet the Defence Technology Institute (DTI) under the Thai Ministry of Defence to discuss cooperation. We will explore product use in Thailand, and also on how we can cooperate to get the Thai defence sector on board with us.

And more: We’re working on a few other exciting things that we can’t talk about yet.

Special forces, national armies, airlines and aircraft maintenance teams are very different users, but they all want the same thing from us: infrastructure that’s up in hours, not weeks.

None of this happens alone. Thank you to our partners, including TCK by Kıraç in Turkey, MILDAT in Poland and to everyone who stopped by our stands this year.

We’ll share more as soon as we can. Follow us so you don’t miss it.
