CBRN protective equipment

Avon Protection’s CBRN experts Hamish de Bretton-Gordon and Tom Williams will lead discussions in two key areas; implications of the future chemical and biological weapons threat for military capability and how the evolving global threat is driving a case for a new military dress category state.
