Battle proven military seating

We design, test and build a wide range of seating solutions to delivery into military vehicle platforms, both new and legacy, all around the world. With over 100,000 of our seats in service, you can rest assured that our products will protect you for a lifetime of use.

Our team brings a wide range of experience to seat design, including supercar design and commercial aircraft seat ergonomics, allowing us to work with customers who have key challenges including weight, climate, space and comfort.

Pushing the Boundaries in Protection and Comfort

Our blast attenuating seats – BLASTech, were first developed following an in-depth search for a seat on the market that could mitigate the effects of a blast and meet our exacting standards. When we were unable to find one, we chose to design our own rather than settle for second best. This technology, now market-leading, has been independently trialled and tested extensively under mandate by the UK, US and Australian governments, as well as by multiple global OEMs, experts and accredited test facilities. Key survivability features include a unique automatic weight adjustment system and a reset mechanism to protect the occupant against the secondary (slam down) event.

As well as providing leading blast protection, all of Jankel’s military seats are designed with occupant ergonomics in mind. Having been developed in accordance with stringent military standards and qualification requirements, our seats have been proven to reduce harmful vehicle vibrations to the occupant and to enhance to improve occupant safety and comfort.
