Ferno Norden Awarded Framework Agreement with the Norwegian Armed Forces
Will Supply Blood Transport Coolers
Ferno Norden Military System AS has entered into a framework agreement with the Norwegian Armed Forces for the delivery of specialized coolers for blood transport, with an estimated total value of NOK 15 million. The agreement was awarded in strong competition with several international suppliers.
The new coolers will be used to ensure safe and efficient transport of blood in the field and are a vital part of the Armed Forces’ focus on advanced life-saving treatment outside of hospitals. Norway has long been internationally recognized for its prehospital use of whole blood, and the Armed Forces are now strengthening their capabilities through solutions that enable life-saving treatment in field conditions.
The agreement covers two different models: a passive "Golden Hour Box" and a battery-powered variant developed specifically for field use. Both are designed to withstand demanding conditions while remaining lightweight, durable, and easy to handle for soldiers in operational environments.
Ferno Norden was established in 1978 and significantly expanded its focus on the defense sector three years ago with the launch of Ferno Norden Military System in June 2022. Since its inception, the company has quickly established itself as a key supplier of prehospital systems and medical solutions to the Nordic defense market.
