The idea of Atom was born from a profound quest to invent and manufacture solutions that prevent the colossal damage caused by explosions while transporting, storing, and handling highly inflammable liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons. And this very pursuit inspired a team of professionals from the oil and gas industry to collaborate and collectively develop products effective enough to change practices and save lives. A decade long research and development process, engineering and practical user experiences from several security applications in defense and strategic environments paved the way toward a revolutionary idea – Atom Explosion Prevention System (AEPS).
