GICHNER Shelter Systems

ARMY STANDARD FAMILY EXPANDABLE OVERVIEW

Gichner Shelter Systems is proud to offer the one and two-sided ASF expandable shelter; a member of the family of standard rigid wall ISO shelters used by branches of the Department of Defense.
Weighing only 5,300lbs, the one sided expandable is able to accomodate an impressive payload of 9,700lbs. This impressive strength-to-weight ratio is the result of innovative material engineering. Panel construction consists of aluminum faced, honeycomb-core, hot-bonded panels, on the walls, roof, and floor.

The ASF expandable is designed to allow for a maximum operating volume, while maintaining the dimensional requirements of ISO 668 and ANSI MH5.4 during transportation and storage modes, thus allowing for transport using all common intermodal transport methods.

In July of 2005, Gichner Shelter Systems was selected by Natick as the sole provider of the Army Standard Family Expandable Shelters to the U.S. armed forces, with a 5 year contract through July of 2010. To date, Natick has placed orders of over $4.5M on this contract.
