The EDU shield has been developed for use by explosive disposal and tactical teams. Years of research and attention to detail have produced shield systems that combine high protective capability and superb maneuverability. The EDU shield is now in use in many countries throughout the world.
 
Developed to offer maximum over pressure and fragmentation protection during explosive disposal operations. The EDU is equipped with removable spring-loaded legs. In the stowed position, the legs hug the edge of the shield for easy storage and maneuverability. One easy motion releases the support legs into the deployed position, allowing the shield to be self-supporting.
