The HCR-CTRO team once again took part in the prestigious NATO EOD COE Demonstrations and Trials 2025, held on 8–9 October in Bratislava. The event, organized by the NATO Centre of Excellence for Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD COE), brings together experts, representatives of armed forces, and industry stakeholders to foster cooperation, innovation, and knowledge exchange in countering explosive threats.

This year’s edition featured 55 exhibitors and attracted around 700 visitors from NATO member countries, partner armed forces, and the defence sector.

At the event, HCR-CTRO representatives presented the Centre’s activities and opportunities for cooperation in testing new technologies in humanitarian demining. They also explored the latest developments in the removal and destruction of explosive ordnance.

Visitors to the HCR-CTRO booth showed great interest in the Centre’s testing sites and the possibility of participating in the international “Mine Action Symposium”, which HCR-CTRO regularly organizes in Croatia.
