We are based in the mountains of North Wales and have a heritage of over 30 years in supplying tactical climbing solutions to end users.

Knowledge

We have been closely involved with developing climbing systems for over 30 years and have used this experience to work with units to modify and develop climbing systems for the tactical environment which meet their operational requirements. We co-operate closely with teams to develop equipment and systems that deploy quickly, minimise weight, silhouette and noise whilst working with standard issue kit.

We can help teams to develop bespoke systems that will allow them to climb, rig, ascend, descend and haul on vertical terrain whether that is establishing an access point on top of a sea cliff or allowing operators to set up an OP on high ground. The rescue capability we offer extends from micro rope systems that allow teams to lower or haul casualties with a bare minimum of kit to systems that allow full 3-dimensional rescues to be performed on steep terrain.

Training

The capability we provide includes bespoke, externally accredited training programs that take best practices from industry and incorporate them into programs that work in operational environments.

Our tactical rope and rescue courses, designed for military, police, law enforcement, and government markets, include both accredited and custom training options. Each course is tailored to meet unique needs, ensuring relevant core skills and techniques for interoperability between organisations. Our experienced consultants ensure that our training remains current and practical for all operators.
