Guided by their initiative to develop capabilities that provide additional protection for soldiers while reducing time and logistic requirements,¹ the U.S. It’s portable enough to be airlifted into remote sites and provides quick protection for troops with no additional equipment support needed.  These panels successfully encapsulate the bullet, preventing harmful ricochets and providing additional safety to the warfighter.

Our long fiber products are produced using a pultrusion process in which continuous tows of fiber are pulled through an impregnation die (to introduce polymer and additive solutions) and then chopped to length (typically 12mm) in a pelletizer.   In contrast, short fiber reinforced solutions are produced by introducing pre-chopped fibers (typically 1mm or less) into an extruder where the fibers are mixed with polymer and other additives.  In addition to a gain in toughness performance LFTs also boost stiffness and strength as well.
