Frequently asked questions

About Garanti Kompozit

Who does AHCEBRIAN sell Garanti Kompozit equipment to?

Emergency equipment and the testing and garment-making services go to public administrations, emergency services and companies. Ballistic protection, armour and explosive ordnance disposal equipment go only to authorised public bodies and companies, with the authorisations each transaction requires.

Why are some products shown without published protection levels?

Because they are defence equipment. Levels, test standards, weights and reports are sent to the buyer once the organisation, the intended use and the authorisations for the transaction have been identified.

What documentation comes with a quotation?

The model’s technical data sheet, the standards it has been tested to, laboratory reports and company certificates. Request them through the form, stating the product and its use.

How do I commission a test in their laboratories?

Tell us the material, the standard or test, and the number of samples. We send you the lead time, shipping conditions and a quotation, and the laboratory issues the report.

What does AHCEBRIAN do in the transaction?

Commercial representation: it handles the enquiry in Spanish, gathers the manufacturer’s documentation, prepares the quotation and follows the order through to delivery.
