Scepter to Showcase Lighter, Better, Safer Polymer Packaging for Large-Caliber Ammunition at DSEI 2025

August 13, 2025

AKRON, Ohio—Scepter, a Myers Industries company and global leader in advanced polymer solutions for military logistics, is proud to announce its participation at DSEI 2025 (Defence and Security Equipment International), taking place in London, Sept. 9–12.

At this year’s event, Scepter will showcase its next-generation polymer packaging for large-caliber ammunition, including its newest container specifically designed for 120mm tank rounds, engineered to be lighter, better, and safer.

In response to modern battlefield requirements, Scepter’s packaging solutions offer significant weight reduction—up to 41% lighter than traditional steel alternatives, without compromising durability or performance. This weight savings translates directly into improved mobility, reduced fuel consumption, and decreased physical burden on soldiers.

“We are focused on delivering operational advantages through smarter packaging,” said Tania Reynolds, Director of Global Business Development at Scepter. “Our innovative polymer designs help reduce logistics costs, enhance sustainment, and improve warfighter protection.”

Key features of Scepter’s polymer packaging include:

  • Weight Efficiency: Dramatically reduced load weight for easier handling and transport.
  • Enhanced Safety: Designed with impact resistance and chemical durability in mind, supporting compliance with NATO and U.N. transport standards. Reduced fuel consumption directly relates to fewer dangerous fuel convoy missions.
  • Sustainability: Fully recyclable and reusable, contributing to circular supply chain goals and energy resilience initiatives.

Scepter’s packaging is currently in use by NATO allied forces around the world, and the company continues to expand its portfolio to meet the growing global demand for lightweight, high-performance logistics solutions.
