Press Release, Cardiff, August 2025: Wescom Defence, a trusted provider of pyrotechnics, energetics and a wide range of reliable products and systems to global defence forces, will officially launch and showcase the ATMIS Multispectral Camouflage (ATMIS MSC) portfolio at DSEI 2025 in London.
ATMIS MSC is a signature management solution that delivers adaptive, tactical, multispectral integrated systems designed for maximum operational effectiveness. Developed by BCB International, which is now part of Wescom Group following its acquisition in January 2025, the ATMIS MSC range provides flexible, modular, durable, and customisable components that minimise visibility across the visual, infrared, and thermal spectrums. This enhances force protection and delivers the concealment needed to fight, survive, and win in an increasingly contested, multi-domain battlespace.
“The integration of BCB International into Wescom Group has enabled us to deliver a truly world-class camouflage capability,” said David Griffiths, VP Defence Sales, Wescom Defence. “By combining proven protection across multiple spectrums with adaptable, field-ready configurations, ATMIS MSC gives forces the tactical edge required for modern operations and emerging threats.”
ATMIS MSC includes materials specifications such as:
- ATMIS Flex: Lightweight, pliable multispectral fabric providing proven protection across the UV, visible, infrared, thermal and radar spectrums.
- ATMIS Crinkle: 3D creased texture for terrain mimicry.
- ATMIS MK8 2D: Durable, heavy-duty multispectral material.
- ATMIS MK8 3D Leafed: MK8 with precision cut 3D leafing for advanced disruption.
The full product line-up supports static, mobile and individual solutions, from lightweight personal cloaks to vehicle-mounted and semi-permanent systems. Individual systems are designed for tactical deployment by dismounted users, offering enhanced concealment without compromising agility. The ATMIS CNDS (Combat Net Defence System) combines multispectral camouflage with Dyneema and aramid materials to deliver scalable concealment and kinetic protection against drone strikes, loitering munitions and thermal detection. ATMIS MSC products are designed to meet NATO standards. They are field ready and adaptable to specific mission requirements. ATMIS MSC will be demonstrated live at DSEI 2025, with a full showcase available at Stand N5-150 and Stand N3-305, with Stand N3-305 being the main camouflage and concealment focus. The full product line-up includes:
- ATMIS Flex 2D – Ghillie.
- ATMIS MK8 2D – Basha.
- ATMIS Crinkle 3D – Patrol Cloak.
- ATMIS Crinkle 3D – SF Patrol Cloak.
