Explosive Detection
Dog (EDD) Teams

Specialised expertise supporting

aviation security

​

Explosive detection by EDD teams is a specialist capability, deployable to support or reinforce existing aviation security measures.

​

It is particularly valuable for targeted checks, reassurance operations and sensitive situations, or any mission requiring a rapid, discreet and effective response.

​

By combining the handler and the dog, EDD operations enable efficient coverage of areas, items or aircraft, including in constrained environments, while providing an immediate and easily understood indication for all stakeholders on site.​

​​

A deterrent and reassurance capability

​​

Beyond its technical value, the presence of EDD teams acts as a strong signal of vigilance and risk control for passengers, airport staff and flight crews.

​​

It helps de-escalate tensions, strengthens the sense of security, and supports operations without disrupting them.
