ThermoBallistic thermoplastic panels are thermally formed with e-glass and thermoplastic resin systems, offering a cost-competitive alternative to ballistic-resistant materials made with other fibers or thermoset resins.
GlasArmor thermoset panels are constructed from layers of woven e-glass fiber reinforcements with a proprietary resin system.
Thermoplastic recycled-content composites can further support a circular economy and help customers lessen their environmental impact.
