HETEREN, The Netherlands - Mactwin Products & Software, a Dutch security company, developed a unique product to foil ATM gas attacks called the ATM Gas Protection Unit (GPU).

In an effort to minimize damage done by gas attacks, the GPUs detect an explosive gas and it releases a explosion suppression chemical which changes the make-up of the explosive gas and renders it ineffective. The GPU maintains this status for up to 60 minutes, thus preventing structural damage to the ATM and to your premises.
