When low weight and high mobility are the main issues, Composhield applies the patented lightweight armor material concept.
The ceramic-polymer-based panels are Composhield’s lightweight concept in ballistic/blast protection: During the last decade the panels based on ceramics have proven to be the ultimate ballistic material.
Composhield’s lightweight panel is a composite structure, which is based on an extremely flexible polymer binder that provides the structural integrity. The active elements in the panels are the disrupter (ceramic front) and the absorber (fiber reinforced polymer backing). The design is currently being patented (Patent Pending: GB 0314538.0, PCT/EP04/006540)
The CP panels are certified for ballistic and blast impact bye the TNO laboratories in Holland, and are in accordance common standards such as:
Composhield’s lightweight panels are currently being patented. The structure is based on an extremely flexible compound, which provides the structural integrity of the ballistic panels. The active elements in the panel are the disrupter (ceramic front) and the absorber (composite laminate).
