The bullet-resistant fiberglass panels available from Armortex® offer complete reliability in high-performance ballistics applications. The panels have been designed to resist very high impact forces in accordance with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 752 standards 1 to 8.
Armortex’s customers determine the measure of safety they need, and the company offers bullet-resistant fiberglass panels to suit their special requirements.
All the bullet-resistant fiberglass panels from Armortex are manufactured in-house, using a roving ballistic-grade fiberglass. Thermoset resin is mechanically injected into this cloth, which is pressed into flat rigid sheets with the help of a hydraulic hot press.
Through this process, Amortex optimizes the ballistic performance of its fiberglass panels, by means of accurate de-lamination and reliable projectile retention.
