Bomb Transport Bin

The Bomb Transportation Bin BTB-200 provides a safer way to move suspected letter bombs and small improvised explosive devices (IEDs) away from people and critical assets. By placing the item inside a robust, blast- and fragment‑mitigating container, responders can relocate it to a designated safe area with reduced risk to building occupants, vehicles and infrastructure.

Compact, easy to carry and simple to operate, the BTB-200 fits naturally into mailrooms, security posts and public buildings as part of a layered protective strategy, giving staff a clear option when a suspicious package is identified.

Key benefits

• Safer movement of suspect items: Designed for the transport of letter bombs, parcels and other small devices, helping to reduce the effects of blast and fragmentation if a device functions during movement.
• Rapid deployment: Straightforward opening and closing allows teams to quickly place a suspect item in the bin and secure the lid, minimising time spent close to the threat.
• Portable and easy to handle: Carry handles and straps make the BTB-200 easy for one or two people to move through doorways, stairwells and confined spaces where trolleys or bulky containers are impractical.
• Supports controlled evacuation: Allows security staff and EOD teams to relocate a device from crowded areas to pre‑planned safe holding points or disposal areas as part of incident response procedures.
• Fits a wide range of environments: Suitable for government buildings, embassies, transport hubs, commercial offices, critical infrastructure and any site with an elevated mail or IED threat.
• Low‑maintenance design: Rugged construction and simple mechanical components help keep upkeep and inspection requirements low while ensuring the bin is ready when needed.

Typical applications

• Mailroom and package screening where suspicious letters or parcels must be isolated and removed from working areas.
• Public building security (courts, parliaments, embassies, corporate headquarters) as part of bomb threat and evacuation plans.
• Airports, ports, rail and bus terminals that need a portable option for moving suspect items to sterile areas.
• Stadiums, arenas and event venues where a suspicious package may be discovered during events or pre‑event sweeps.
• Support to police and EOD teams when an item must be removed from a crowded or constrained location before further render‑safe procedures.

How the BTB-200 is used

In a typical deployment, the BTB-200 is brought as close as safely possible to the suspicious package. Following local SOPs, the item is gently placed inside the bin and the lid is secured. The device can then be carefully carried or transported to an external safe area, isolation point or EOD vehicle. The bin’s construction is intended to mitigate the effects of blast overpressure and fragmentation should the device initiate during transit, directing energy away from nearby personnel and infrastructure.

Key features

• Blast- and fragment‑mitigating body: Robust composite body and lid designed to help contain and deflect blast pressure and fragments from small explosive devices.
• Secure closure: Positive locking mechanism to keep the lid firmly in place once the suspect item is inside.
• Carry system: Integrated handles and/or straps positioned for balanced one‑ or two‑person carry.
• Compact footprint: Sized to accept typical letter bombs and small parcels while remaining easy to stow in vehicles, security rooms or mail screening areas.
• Clearly identifiable: High‑visibility markings so staff can quickly locate the bin in an emergency.
