Reception at the Côtes-d’Armor Gendarmerie: a meeting at the heart of security issues in the region

On 9 January 2025, Centigon France was delighted to welcome a delegation from the Côtes-d’Armor Gendarmerie Group to its historic site in Lamballe (22), Brittany.

This special meeting provided an opportunity to share expertise and know-how in the field of armouring and security. The visit began with a presentation of the company, followed by a discussion on site security and production issues. This exchange promoted a better understanding of Centigon France’s activities and local security issues.

Participants then attended a demonstration of ballistic firing tests carried out in Centigon France’s test laboratory. This demonstration highlighted the excellence and reliability of our armour solutions.

The tour continued with an immersion into part of the production site. The principles of armouring, the assembly of armoured cells and the design of specialised vehicles such as SUVs, 4x4s, pick-ups and armoured truck cabins were presented.

Colonel Privat, accompanied by the squadron leaders of the Saint-Brieuc and Dinan companies, the departmental road safety squadron, and the surveillance and intervention platoon, appreciated the quality of Centigon France’s know-how and expertise.

This enriching afternoon strengthened the ties between Centigon France and the Côtes-d’Armor gendarmerie forces, while highlighting the importance of tailor-made solutions to ensure optimal protection.
