On June 8, this year, the representative of the Croatian Company
DOK-ING Konstantin Darmaniyan visited CHDE SNCO. DOK-

3000 m2, clears all antipersonnel mines and can withstand explosion of antivehicle mine under its
clearing tool with minimum damage. It is not too heavy, which makes the transportation easy, and
many other features.
