On August 19 and 20, 2026, the international defense and security industry will meet at the DALO Industry Days 2026 at the new MCH Exhibition Centre in Herning, Denmark. The event is considered the largest defense industry trade fair in Scandinavia and brings together procurement organizations, armed forces, NATO partners, and companies from the defense, aerospace, security, and high-tech sectors. Due to strong growth in recent years, the fair will be held in Herning for the first time.
Following a successful appearance last year, NOVAPOR returns with a larger booth and an expanded team of experts. From the outset, it was clear: our goal is not only to showcase products, but to develop solutions for demanding transport and packaging challenges together with our customers. This idea was already central to our initial DALO announcement and will be consistently pursued in 2026.
Packaging is now part of the mission
In defense industry The demands are constantly increasing. Modern systems contain sensitive electronics, sensors, optics, drone technology, or communication systems.
At the same time, they must be transported, stored and deployed worldwide under sometimes extreme conditions. Packaging no longer simply fulfills the task of transporting a product from A to B.
Packaging for the defense industry must:
- absorb shocks and vibrations
- Protect sensitive technology
- enable rapid deployment
- Reduce transport costs
- comply with international transport regulations
- function reliably for many years
Complete packaging solutions from a single source
Many suppliers only provide foam inserts or individual cases. NOVAPOR develops complete protective packaging – precisely tailored to the respective application.
Individual suitcase solutions
Whether robust deployment cases, Transport case for sensitive measuring equipment or mobile tool systems – We develop customized case solutions with precisely milled foam inserts.
The focus is not on standard products, but on the optimal solution for the respective application.
Wooden crates for heavy and sensitive goods
Large plants or military systems often require special export packaging.
Naturally, these can be manufactured according to ISPM-15 upon request and are exportable worldwide.
NOVAPOR develops custom-made wooden crates for Defense technology, machines, optical systems, Aerospace, international projects, among others.
Corrugated cardboard packaging with a system
Not every application requires a heavy-duty case.
We develop spare parts, series products or service kits intelligent corrugated cardboard packaging, which reduce weight, save costs and at the same time ensure a high level of product protection.
This often results in significant potential savings, particularly in the area of defense logistics.
UN-certified packaging
The safe transport of lithium batteries or other hazardous materials presents companies with particular challenges.
NOVAPOR develops UN-certified packaging solutions for a wide variety of applications and helps customers to safely comply with international transport regulations.
Technical foam solutions
The right foam solution often determines whether sensitive electronics continue to function reliably after thousands of kilometers of transport.
Our experts develop custom insoles Regarding: shock protection, vibration damping, organization, ergonomics, series production, ESD protection and cleanroom applications.
