We create innovative solutions focused on communication and security. We have transformed the aquired years of experience into the field of critical infrastructure, communication infrastructure in a complex measure and cable infrastructure protection. We focus on quality, trustworthiness, and we choose our partners with a global impact in mind. For a decade we have been searching and carefully selecting what the market expects. We are a trusted partner for globally respected manufacturers.

Crash tests are an important part of the testing process for products designed to protect critical infrastructure. For a decade, we've been searching and carefully selecting the best products in the critical infrastructure protection industry. Whether it is road blockers, wedge barriers, static and automatic bollards or security gates. We mainly focus on quality, reliability and safety.

Testing is aimed at verifying the durability and reliability of security systems in various extreme situations. Testing uses various methods and crash simulations to determine how well a device can withstand impacts or other hazardous conditions. The aim of these tests is to ensure that the products are able to maintain their functionality and provide reliable protection in case of crisis situations.

The key to protecting critical infrastructure from a vehicle carrying explosive device (VBIED) is a combination of entry restriction and approach speed control, with the final line of defense being an interlock system. Vehicle Security Barriers (VSBs) are designed as life-saving devices, so it is important that they are suitable to combat the ever-increasing types of threats.

Test work carried out so far includes dynamic impact testing with various impact forces, penetration testing and explosive debris dispersion testing.

Nowadays, increasingly higher levels of environmental protection are necessary, which our company can offer you. Designers are tasked with using such systems that are not only safe for today, but are also a guarantee against the increasing level of threats in the future. Our commitment to security also extends to providing first-line services to designers to help them correctly specify and design security checkpoints.

What are PAS 68 and IWA 14-1?

PAS 68 & IWA 14-1 have been prepared to respond to the needs of organizations that want to be confident that Safety Barriers (VSBs) will provide the level of impact resistance they require. In the United Kingdom, the CPNI (Centre for the Protection of National Infrastructure) in cooperation with other stakeholders created the PAS 68 classification. It has now been replaced by the International Works Agreement (IWA) 14-1, which combines elements of the PAS 68 and the American classification. ASTM 2656.

PAS68 and IWA14-1 specify the main impact effect requirement for VSB and the test method for evaluating its effect after exposure to a single impact by a driverless test vehicle. Performance ratings in PAS 68 and IWA14-1 are designed for each product that has been crash tested; this classification code should be available to confirm test results.

On 8 July, 2022 our company obtained ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 Certificates. 
Quality management system and environmental management system of REWAN s.r.o. is certified by TÜV SÜD Slovakia s.r.o. according to STN EN ISO 9001:2016 and STN EN ISO 14001:2016.

The ISO 9001 quality certificate is the best known and the most used standard. Through the quality certificate the company demonstrates to the customers its ability to provide quality services or products and thereby proves its ability to be a reliable long-term partner for orders. The ISO 9001 standard primarily focuses on the quality management system in the organization. The quality management system focuses on all activities and processes in the company, i.e. managing human and financial resources, maintaining infrastructure, including buildings, transportation, hardware, software and other communication or information technology. Production and service planning as well as purchasing managment are also an important focus.
Standard is fully compatible with the standards of other management systems such as ISO 14001.

The ISO 14001 environmental certificate is an internationally recognized standard for environmental management systems. Its primary task is to identify and understand the environmental aspects that relate to the entire infrastructure of the company and all its activities, and thus to regulate the environmental impact on the environment. In its scope, the ISO 14001 standard creates conditions for setting the environmental goals and programs, the fulfillment of which is reviewed by top management a an indepentent body during internal audits at regular intervals.

In June 21, 2022 our company obtained SCC Certificate. System of the SCC certification (Safety Certificate Contractors) is an internationally recognized certification standard that combines high requirements on occupational safety, health protection and environmental protection into one safety concept.

SCC certification demonstrates managing and implementation of requirements concerning safety and health protection at work and environmental protection taking into account the legislation of Germany, countries of Benelux and corporate requirements of large companies. SCC Certificate is accredited by German accreditation body DAkkS.

On February 1, 2018, the Passive Fire Protection Association of the Slovak Republic (APPO) published the new ATN 006 Fire safety of electrical installations. Determining the fire hazard caused by cables according to fire engineering parameters and the nature of cable operation. The standard provides guidance for assessing the fire risk and fire hazard of cables from the point of view of a new evaluation of cables according to their reaction to fire and the nature of their operation.
