Equipment Ranges
Details of the equipment provided on our DE&S contract
Forty years ago, Varivane developed a modular furniture range intended for deployment across various Royal Navy vessels, including the Type 22/23 Frigates, Type 42 Destroyers, HMS Ocean, HMS Bulwark, and HMS Albion, among others.
This longstanding tradition is one we take immense pride in, as it has laid the foundation for the modular furniture currently supplied to new construction vessels.
We are thrilled to continue our support for the armed forces, particularly the Royal Navy, while also maintaining our collaboration with DE&S as they provide essential equipment to the UK Armed Forces.
The efforts of Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) are crucial to national security, as they deliver top-tier equipment and support services to the Royal Navy, British Army, and Royal Air Force. Their work is vital in ensuring that our nation remains safe and prosperous, guaranteeing that frontline personnel are equipped with the necessary resources at the appropriate time
