Invented and manufactured by DSM Dyneema in facilities across the world, Dyneema
® is a super-strong fiber based on ultra high molecular weight polyethylene. This advanced fiber has many properties:
Dyneema® is strong yet light: On a weight-for-weight basis, it is up to 15 times stronger than quality steel and up to 40% stronger than aramid fibers.
Dyneema
® is extremely durable: It can withstand the harshest environments for a longer time.
Dyneema® floats: This property, combined with
low specific gravity, makes the material ideal for armor solutions in and around water.
Dyneema® is easy to process: It can easily fit around your way of doing business.
These properties - and many more - can make Dyneema
® the ideal material
for armor solutions used against ballistic threats.
