Concept Overview

The STRALON Safety Net System is a lightweight, high-strength protective solution designed to mitigate risks from drone impact and airborne debris in aviation environments.


The system provides energy absorption, impact mitigation, and containment, reducing the risk of damage to critical infrastructure, equipment, and personnel.


It is engineered as a flexible protective system with high durability and performance in harsh outdoor conditions.

Intended Applications (Drone & Debris Protection)
  • Drone impact mitigation around critical airport infrastructure
  • Protection of radar, communication, and navigation systems
  • Shielding of sensitive equipment and control units
  • Debris containment in high-risk operational zones
  • Overhead protection against falling or airborne objects
System Description

The solution is delivered as a complete protective system:

  • STRALON knotless net panels
  • Reinforced border ropes and edge fixation points
  • Integration with steel or composite support structures
  • Adjustable tensioning and modular installation

The system can be tailored in mesh size, strength level, and geometry depending on threat level and coverage area.
