Gryphon Engineering is proud to be the exclusive Blastsax™ dealer in Canada.
Designed to be taken to scenes quickly, BlastSax automatically inflate when they come into contact with water to become more effective than traditional sandbags within a few minutes.
They have undergone stringent MoD tests to prove their effectiveness and are now used worldwide by both police and military and are essential equipment for those involved in the battle against international terrorism.
BlastSax are pioneering sandless sandbags which have undergone extensive trials with the British armed forces and can save lives by mitigating explosions from IEDs while helping to preserve the evidence.
They are transformed from being as light as a pillowcase to more effective than sandbags in minutes. Easy and space-saving to store in warehouses or on vehicles, BlastSax weigh just 13 ounces (0.37 kilos) before being activated by simply adding water and then they become taut, weighing around 20kg (44lbs) in just 5 minutes..
The BlastSax dimensions before hydration are 500mm by 400mm by 20mm and after they have absorbed around 20kg of water they increase in depth to 160mm with the other dimensions, 500mm by 400mm, staying the same..
BlastSax are sold in cases of 18. Inside each case are 3 packs of 6 BlastSax.
BlastSax have been shown to be more effective than sandbags at capturing fragments from explosive devices and helping forensic teams gather evidence. They are also proved to be a reliable protective barrier against grenades and bullets fired by the standard British Army SA80A2 rifle.

The DR-10 MUGV is a lightweight, compact, multi-mission remote platform developed for supporting small unit dismounted operations. While using a wearable controller, the warfighter sends the DR-10 ahead of his small unit to gain situational awareness and take action.
When fitted with the Light Weight Modular Arm, the DR-10 has the ability to investigate and recover or neutralize a potential IED. This lightweight arm weighs only seven pounds, can be spread loaded amongst the dismounted squad, and requires no tools to quickly install to the vehicle.
DR-10’s day and night sensors allow it to serve as the forward eyes of the team while also delivering remote sensors, emplacing counter-IED charges, and more.
Flexible for Mission Success
The mission dictates exactly how the DR-20 will be used–making it the perfect choice for defense and security applications especially, in congested urban settings.
Whether it’s at a security checkpoint, deep inside a sewer or drainpipe or tasked with an EOD mission, the DR-20 supports
a wide range of scenarios.
Feature Packed -
Dragon Runner 20 is small enough to be hand-carried yet
capable of lifting up to 10 pounds. The robot features a robotic arm with a rotating shoulder, wrist and grippers for impressive dexterity. Equipped with four cameras, the DR-20 is able to support day and night missions
Dragon Runner was originally developed for the U.S. Marine Corps. The basic model Dragon Runner weighs 14 lbs and measures just 12.2 x 16.6 x 6 inches.
The basic Dragon Runner gave users the ability to see around corners in urban environments. Engineers and roboticists in the QinetiQ North America Technology Solutions Group have developed enhancements that make it possible for personnel in the field to take the basic Dragon Runner SUGV (small unmanned ground vehicle) and add whatever combination of treads, cameras, sensors and/or arms a mission requires.
