Rheinmetall subsidiary ZMS exhibits for the first time at Eurosatory 2022 its expandable medical shelters


In the field of medical service equipment, Rheinmetall offers not only special vehicles and state-of-the-art simulation technology for optimal mission preparation, but also products for medical service infrastructure. At Eurosatory 2022, Rheinmetall will exhibit one of its expandable medical shelters, which forms the basic module of an infrastructure for the highest quality and most modern medical technology. In mid-November 2021, Rheinmetall acquired Zeppelin Mobile Systeme GmbH (ZMS). The company from Meckenbeuren near Lake Constance, which specialises in mobile shelter systems including container and tent based solutions for all kind of operations, will be integrated into the burgeoning Rheinmetall Project Solutions GmbH, in which Rheinmetall's resources and capabilities relating to services for armed forces and security forces are pooled.

In addition to its recognised capabilities in the field of special shelters, ZMS also possesses considerable expertise in the field of medical technology. ZMS is a leader in the provision of turnkey mobile medical facilities. In addition to complete field hospitals, ZMS also offers solutions for medical service scaffolding kits for vehicles and existing infrastructure. The acquisition of ZMS is a targeted addition to Rheinmetall's portfolio, enabling the company to position itself consistently and even more comprehensively in this key international market.

In March 2022, The German Bundeswehr has contracted with the new Rheinmetall subsidiary ZMS to supply and integrate state-of-the-art medical technology for the field hospital at Camp Castor, the Bundeswehr’s forward operating base in Gao, Mali. In all, the order is worth a figure in the lower two-digit million-euro range. The material will be furnished in the second half of the year, and the integration on site in Mali will then be implemented. Besides furnishing and integrating high-quality medical technology into the fixed infrastructure of the forward operating base in Gao, ZMS GmbH’s scope of performance includes training of personnel, comprehensive documentation as well as a service and maintenance package.

The company has long been a reliable partner to customers in over forty countries on every continent.

Field kitchens, repair shop containers and other mobile infrastructure systems also figure in its product range.
