Defence and security solutions

Security in high level performance

Security is a key factor in rescue, protection and defence vehicles. These vehicles are designed for demanding use and suitable materials to them have high requirement. High-performance plastics offer advantages to rescue, protection and defence solutions as they are lightweight yet extremely durable materials. For example in riot control, lightweight plastics offer a clear advantage to riot equipments. Aikon® high-performance plastics provide security for authorities in their daily tasks.

Hard coated polycarbonate is a superior material

Aikon® PC Hard is a hard coated high-performance plastic sheet. Aikon® PC Hard is a lightweight yet extremely impact resistant material and, therefore, an excellent solution for rescue and protection vehicles as well as other protection equipment. The impact strength is about 200 times higher compared to glass. Coating improves the physical properties of polycarbonate by increasing abrasion resistance and UV-resistance. In addition, hard coating improves the material's resistance to chemicals and solvents. extends the service life.

Laminated bulletproof windows

We manufacture bulletproof windows based on customer requirements. Bulletproof windows can be created by laminating polycarbonate sheets, or polycarbonate and acrylic sheets. A laminated plastic structure is extremely impact resistant and a secure solution for vehicles requiring bullet resistance.

Transparent display shows dynamic information

Transparent displays can be laminated into vehicle windows or riot control solutions to show dynamic information of a vehicle or an environment. The technology enables the building of safer vehicles that improve ergonomics, situation awareness and user experience for drivers.

Shading films provide optimized light control

Shading films provide custom shading as their dimming features allow controlling how much light enters a space. The films also enable optimizing light to utilize natural light to save energy, but also shade during peak hours for vehicle cooling and solar control.
