Dyneema^® for vehicle armor solutions: Who benefits?

Benefits to armor solution providers

We add value to you and your customers in the following ways:

Dyneema offers the highest protection-to weight ratio in the world, helping you produce more efficient solutions.

We can re-engineer material solutions for your products, assisting with technical advice in any hybrid solutions, for example.

Dyneema^® provides ease of processing. It can be cut to precise fitting dimensions, and it can easily accommodate various coatings to the laminate surface.

Benefits to manufacturers

By working with Dyneema^® fiber, instead of other traditional materials or less advanced composites, you can protect lives and significantly upgrade vehicle performance while safeguarding the lives of those within.

Vehicle armor made with Dyneema^® can achieve maximum protection at a much lighter weight. This increases vehicle speed, acceleration, mobility, operational performance (improved fuel efficiency, enhanced cornering) and overall off-road performance - as lighter vehicles are less likely to get bogged down or stuck. A lighter vehicle also incurs less wear and tear.

Benefits to end users

Saving lives and improving performance - through Dyneema^® Hard Ballistic systems' unique combination of lighter weight and exceptional protective ability.

Increased payload capacity: By reducing the weight necessary to sufficiently protect the vehicle, more payload (personnel, equipment) can be added without exceeding weight limitations.

Reduce cost of ownership: Well protected, yet lighter vehicles consume less fuel. The reduced weight also can significantly reduce the wear and tear of virtually all vehicle components.

Performance in harsh environments: Dyneema^® retains its performance and properties in the harshest of conditions.
