For protection in high protection classes of safety-relevant components, high-performance ceramic materials are needed that have special properties.Whether ceramic armor plates for aviation, vehicle construction or personal protection – as a long-term supplier to these industries, we know what matters.

Innovation character

Being a hard ballistic component, our monolithic ceramic plates are used in the highest protection classes to break up armor-piercing projectiles upon impact and absorb some of the kinetic energy and distribute it to a larger area. In aircraft armoring, the use of large, complex shaped monolithic ceramic segments enables solutions which ensure the highest level of effectiveness with low weight.
