Blast Resistant Modules
Engineered protection for people, critical equipment and operations in oil, gas, petrochemical and industrial facilities — designed to API 752/753 and available for sale, rental and refurbishment.
Built for Demanding Environments. Engineered for Performance.
Mecton Blast Resistant Modules (BRMs) are designed to meet strict API 752/753 standards and feature a minimum 3 PSI initial blast rating — keeping personnel and critical systems protected in hazardous process environments.
With more than a decade of industry experience, Mecton supports the full BRM lifecycle: engineering, fabrication, delivery, installation, maintenance, refurbishment, recertification and rental.
Backed by our engineering centres in Qatar and the UAE, every module is engineered, delivered and supported to the standards demanding industrial and offshore projects require.
Designed for protection. Built for resilience. Ready for operation.
Blast Resistant Technical Buildings
Design and fabrication of blast-resistant buildings — with A60, H60, H120 and jet-fire-rated options — engineered to safeguard critical electrical, instrumentation and control systems in demanding industrial and operational environments.
Control Rooms
Protected control environments that keep operators and process control systems running safely near live plant.
Local Equipment Rooms
Hardened housings for critical electrical and instrumentation equipment located within process areas.
Substation Modules & E-Houses
Blast resistant electrical buildings that protect power distribution and switchgear essential to operational continuity.
Electrical Skids, Skid & Trailer-Mounted Packages
Compact, transportable protected packages for rapid installation and relocation across sites.
Offices, Laboratories & Workshops
Blast resistant occupied buildings for personnel working in close proximity to hazardous process equipment.
Fire-Rated Options
BRMs can be specified with A60, H60, H120 or jet-fire ratings where fire protection is required alongside blast resistance.
Engineered for Reliability, Efficiency & Long-Term Performance
Our engineering centres in Qatar and the UAE provide the capability and knowledge required to deliver BRMs that meet demanding industry standards and client expectations.
