Defence
Within the defence sector, reliability, safety and discretion are paramount. Systems must function under the most demanding conditions, without margin for error. That calls for well-considered engineering and proven solutions, deployable on land, at sea and in airborne applications.

Hydraulics for defence and naval
Armoured vehicles, combat vehicles and logistics trucks use hydraulics for propulsion, steering, weapon systems and auxiliary systems. Our cylinders and systems withstand shock loads, extreme temperatures and rough terrain conditions.
For naval vessels we supply hydraulic systems for weapon systems, launching installations, anchor winches, deck systems and ship operation. The systems meet classification requirements for naval vessels and are delivered with the required military documentation. Via Sypack, part of Vydraulics, we also supply helicopter refuelling installations for naval vessels conforming to STANAG and MIL standards.
