Dear colleagues,
National Institute of NBC Protection (SUJCHBO) invites You to join the upcoming scientific event – the 6th Hazmat Protect conference on protection against CBRN agents held on 16th-17th September 2026 in SUJCHBO premises in Milin – Kamenna, Czech Republic. The conference will be followed by a practical HAZMAT & CBRN WORKSHOP: Modern analytical tools for identification of CBRN agents and quality control (17th to 18th September 2026).
The Hazmat Protect 2026 Conference is held under the auspices of the General Director of the Fire Rescue Service of the Czech Republic Lt. Gen. Ing. Vladimír Vlček, Ph. D., MBA and the director of the National Institute for NBC Protection Ing. Tomáš Dropa, MBA.
For more than ten years, the Hazmat Protect conference focuses on new research and development in the field of protection against hazardous substances that pose chemical, biological and radioactive (CBRN) threats. The conference topics cover new detection and identification methods and technologies, innovative solutions in field of smart protective equipment, new trends in decontamination technologies and other challenges related to protection against CBRN agents.
The Hazmat Protect conference offers a unique opportunity for scientists, researchers, expert consultants, emergency responders, end users and various manufacturers and suppliers to meet and share their experiences, needs, ideas and proposed solutions with each other.
Contributions from researchers coming from the academic sphere are welcome, as well as the insights and practical experience of specialists from the Fire Rescue Service of the Czech Republic, Medical Emergency System, the Czech Armed Forces and other units involved in dealing with events associated with the risk of the presence of CBRN agents, whether real or simulated situations in research or training. The purpose is to ensure that science and research are not separated from practice and that both sides enrich each other with new directions and needs. The results of research should find their application in practice and be reflected in improved preparedness of rescuers to deal with these dangerous situations.
Hopefully, at the Hazmat Protect conference you will be able to gain new knowledge, make interesting contacts, arrange further research projects, learn about the latest trends in research and development, as well as the current reality in the CBRN field. And especially to enrich others with your unique knowledge and experience.
We look forward to your participation and friendly meeting
