One of the main objectives of artillery is to increase range in order to reach more distant targets. Artillery systems consist of a howitzer, projectile and propellant charge, composed of propellant placed in cloth bags. These bags must be made with high-quality materials and advanced technology in order to meet demanding operational requirements.
At Torrents, we have been industrializing textiles for the Armed Forces and the Defence industry for over four decades, with the utmost care and precision, to ensure the reliability of our products.
We specialize in the manufacture of propellant bags for artillery propelling charges, primarily for 105 and 155 mm calibres. Additionally, we develop projectile components that require propellant bags for their functionality.
