VIKING at Mission Critical Communications Expo 2025
Kista, Stockholm, Sweden
11 November 2011
MSB event
Mission Critical Communications Expo 2025
On November 11, 2025, MSB will host its annual Expo for suppliers and users of mission-critical communications services, serving Swedish civil protection and emergency response collaborators.
MSB – Mission Critical Communications Expo is a key national meeting point where authorized visitors and exhibitors gather to strengthen Sweden’s capacity to collaborate, communicate, and manage mission-critical operations.
VIKING LIGHTING – Our Contribution to MSB
MSB’s historical connection with VIKING Lighting dates back to the early 1980s. The first major deployment of our portable lighting system occurred during Sweden’s international rescue mission to Armenia following the devastating earthquake in 1988.
Although MSB (Myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap) did not yet exist at that time, its predecessor — the Swedish Rescue Services Agency (SRSA) — carried out Sweden’s first international rescue operation after the disaster.
Key facts from the mission:
-
Swedish involvement: The SRSA, now part of MSB, deployed its first international rescue team to Armenia in December 1988.
-
Mission scale: A team of 50 Swedish rescuers and 16 rescue dogs, together with essential equipment, was transported by two Hercules aircraft.
-
Rescue operations: The team began operations on December 11, focusing on a collapsed textile factory.
-
International support: This deployment was part of a major international relief effort following an earthquake that resulted in massive human and infrastructural losses.
-
Legacy: The Armenia mission remains a significant milestone in the history of Swedish international rescue operations.

Why VIKING LIGHTING?
VIKING lamps are designed for crisis environments — providing glare-free, reliable light even in harsh conditions.
They are compact, impact-resistant, and easy to transport in rescue vehicles.
The most popular model, VIKING L230, offers a flexible configuration and simple installation in field operations.
VIKING L230 LED – perfect lighting for firefighters:
Due to its high performance, the VIKING L230 LED is recommended for use in large rooms such as temporary camps, field hospitals, warehouses, storage facilities, and shelters.
This lighting fixture is equipped with an oil-resistant 8-meter cable, designed to perform reliably in harsh industrial or field conditions, including those with oily, muddy, or wet surfaces.
The L230 can be easily connected in series via an additional socket. The total number of lamps in a chain depends on the cable type; for example, using a 3G1.5 cable, up to 25 lamps can be linked together in a single line.
As a manufacturer, VIKING LIGHTING offers full customization, including cable length, material (PVC or screened), and plug types for various national standards.
The L230 LED, compatible with 220–240V AC, is ideal for temporary storage areas that require bright, natural white light. Learn more about the L230 and other versions: VIKING L110/220–230VAC

AQAP for VIKING Lighting:
VIKING Lighting is a popular choice among the defense forces and civil defense in Sweden, as well as in other Nordic countries and other areas where work requires bright, white light and an extreme work environment. We comply with AQAP 2110:2016, a NATO certification standard for supplying the North Atlantic Alliance.
Advantages of VIKING Lighting:
The designer suggested that the VIKING Lighting be light but durable, so the lighting case is made of aluminum.
Additionally, VIKING Lighting has low heat emission even after prolonged operation.
VIKING Lighting operates efficiently in ambient temperatures ranging from -30 °C to 40 °C, which is why it is popular in the Nordic region.
Furthermore, VIKING Lighting can be used when the outdoor temperature reaches as high as +50°C.
Due to this feature, we have customers not only from Europe but also from Africa and the Middle East, who are satisfied with our products.
