DHS Systems International

DHS Systems Int'l is a provider of mobile infrastructure capabilities and solutions for defence, security and crisis relief organisations. Examples are turnkey medical facilities, including field hospitals with all medical and dental equipment and pharmaceuticals; CBRN capabilities from human casualty pods to decontamination facilities; and trailer borne, digitized, command and control facilities.

Our speciality is in blending DRASH (Deployable Rapid Assembly Shelters) and containerised functions with legacy equipment, supported by a range of life supporting utilities, including environmentally friendly ablution systems, generators and environmental control units.

DRASH INTER-CONNECTABLE SHELTER SYSTEM

DHS Systems Int'l is a wholly owned subsidiary of DHS Technologies who are the original equipment manufacturer, and is responsible for the assembly, maintenance, training and international sales of DRASH with the exception of mainland USA. DRASH is the most respected and reliable quick erect / strike tactical shelter system available. For over twenty years, DRASH has proven itself again and again as the shelter of choice by all branches of the US military, numerous Federal Agencies and has an increasing presence amongst other NATO and international Military Forces.

DRASH is the most technologically advanced shelter available, incorporating multiple patents with a composite frame structure fabricated from Titanite®. Titanite® is three times stronger than aluminium for the same weight and cross section. DRASH also features a pre-attached two-cover design. This allows the user to quickly deploy the shelter without attaching or detaching the covers before or after deployment.

TACTICAL SHELTER SUPPORT TRAILERS

There is a range of six shelter types with 47 models of varying widths and lengths. All shelters are inter-connectable allowing for effective complexing for all deployed operations. A family of high mobility tactical trailers with multiple variants supports the shelters as total systems. Appreciating weight and mobility issues with heavy power generation and air conditioning systems, DHS Systems Int'l have developed the TMSS (Trailer Mounted Support System), which offer mobile electric power, environmental control and transportation for the shelters.

COMPLETE MILITARY SHELTER INFRASTRUCTURE

DRASH is recognized as an exceptional integration of shelter, utilities and tactical mobility. Combined together, DRASH provides a total solution. A complete infrastructure when deployed in the field: shelter, power, lighting, heat, cooling and power distribution. More than 6,000 shelters are now in use by the US military and NATO with nearly 1,000 trailer systems now in operation.

DRASH is lightweight and man-portable, rapidly deployable and air transportable with no tools or assembly needed. No locking devices to remember and no centre support poles or beams suitable for use ranging from small Command Posts (CP) to large Tactical Operation Centres (TOC), maintenance to medical facilities.

These unique features make DRASH the shelter of choice for brigade headquarters and above for the US Military. DRASH remains as the obvious choice for today’s modern military.
