VELUM CAMOUFLAGE SYSTEMS

The Velum Camouflage System is a deployable camouflage solution designed to reduce detection across multiple threat environments. Engineered to disrupt visual recognition, minimise thermal signatures and improve asset survivability, Velum can be tailored for vehicles, generators, communications equipment, unmanned platforms and critical infrastructure.

What is Velum?

The Velum Camouflage System is a bespoke camouflage and signature management solution designed to help military and security operators reduce the probability of detection and identification.

Unlike conventional camouflage nets or generic covers, Velum is engineered to:

  • Break up recognisable silhouettes
  • Reduce visual detection
  • Minimise thermal contrast
  • Blend into operational environments
  • Enhance mission survivability
  • Protect equipment whilst deployed or in transit

Key Features

Multispectral Protection

Designed to reduce signatures across multiple sensor systems including:

  • Visual observation
  • Night vision systems
  • Near Infrared (NIR)
  • Thermal Imaging
  • Advanced surveillance sensors

Bespoke Asset Integration

Velum can be designed and manufactured for:

  • Military vehicles
  • Tactical trucks
  • UGVs and unmanned platforms
  • Communication shelters
  • Radar equipment
  • Generators and power units
  • Command and control assets

Visual Signature Disruption

Velum helps reduce visual recognition by:

  • Breaking up familiar silhouettes and outlines
  • Eliminating identifiable vehicle features
  • Reducing contrast against surrounding terrain
  • Creating a more natural and irregular appearance
  • Blending assets into the operational environment

 

This makes it more difficult for an observer to determine exactly what they are looking at and whether it represents a threat.

 
A desert-themed model tank with camouflage cover in sandy tones, ideal for military themed displays or outdoor protective covers. Perfect for durability and realism in harsh environments.

Operational Advantages

Reduced Detection – Lower visibility to hostile observation and surveillance assets.

Improved Survivability – Reduces identification range and increases decision-making time for operators.

Rapid Deployment – Quick installation and removal for operational flexibility.

Silent Operation – No powered components or active systems required.

Modular Construction – Individual sections can be repaired or replaced without replacing the entire system.
