Anti-ballistic spray

October 2011 Products & Solutions

Techpro recently acquired the rights from Israeli company GG Defence to supply the South African market with anti-burn, anti-ballistic, anti-blast and anti-grind solutions.

The highly developed, chemical tolerant Polyuria is a combination of normal Polyurethane, similar to rubber, and hybrid compounds, giving this product the unique properties to combat fire, ammunition, grind and explosives. This fast drying product is completely organic with no toxicity or toxic vapours and is sprayed to the earmarked area by highly trained professionals with specialist equipment which ensures the longevity of the product.

The Anti-Ballistic option has been developed in two thicknesses, 9 mm and 22 mm. The 9 mm solution is sprayed on either side of kevlar, allowing the Polyuria to be sprayed as thinly as possible. This application is not suitable for vehicles due to the window mechanisms and its thickness. However, a thin coating of Polyuria with a layer of kevlar is a possibility for light industrial vehicles. This solution can stop a 0,9 mm bullet.

During testing to prove the competency of the Anti-Blast, a concrete wall sprayed with Anti-Blast withstood an explosion of 100 kg of Trinitrotoluene (TNT). Anti-Blast can also be applied to server rooms and energy management rooms to ensure the safety of property and information.
