https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2024-11/Edwards Ballistic Panel Case Study.pdf
GlasArmor panels made with fiber-reinforced polymer
(FRP) composites provide excellent ballistic stopping
power for the MPS while meeting the requirement of
being lightweight and portable.
They are constructed
from layers of 0°/90° woven E-glass fiber reinforcements
combined with a proprietary resin system in a
continuous pultrusion manufacturing process.
Avient collaborated with Edwards to develop ballistic-
resistant panels that were not only compatible with the
required hardware but also met color requirements for
better visual cover once deployed.
