The Brief

WFEL, a global leader in defence manufacturing and producer of the iconic Boxer Armoured Vehicles, required a purpose-built refinishing solution to enhance their manufacturing capabilities. The project demanded the highest standards of precision, durability and compliance with military-grade coating specifications.

The Solution

Todd Engineering delivered a Titan CV Spray Booth — 26 metres long, two-stage drive-through design specifically for large-scale military vehicles — with full downdraught extraction for a pristine working environment. High, mid and low-level lighting ensures flawless application across the entire vehicle surface. A centralised Inspection Pit integrated with comprehensive extraction systems enables safe under-vehicle inspection to military-grade standards. The installation includes a dedicated Paint Mixing Room and a plant room housing an ABAC air compressor and WORKY dust extraction system.
