PROTECTION & SECURITY

We create protective clothing such as hoods and body armor for many major manufacturers, law enforcement and EMS agencies, pharmaceutical companies and military sub-contractors. We have refined design prototypes and produced millions of protective hoods, many of which are made of DuPont™ protective materials such as Tychem® and Tyvek®. These products require complicated, detail-oriented construction techniques and must meet extraordinarily high quality and inspection levels. Hood variations include single or double bibs, the ability to work with respirator masks, and welding hoods. We can create many of the accessories that accompany the hoods such as carrying pouches, face seals, and adjusted, felt-lined hood bands.
