Ivoryguard
Ivoryguard™ is a breakthrough in foam technology that redefines what’s possible in impact protection. It represents a new class of foam that combines reliable energy absorption — at all strain rates and across all temperatures — with exceptional engineering properties.
Low density:
At just 0.068 g/cc, Ivoryguard™ is lighter than an average silica aerogel, and far lighter than the foams typically used in body armor systems.
Extreme impact protection:
When tested against leading competitors across a range of impact energies and strain rates, Ivoryguard™ consistently delivered superior weight-adjusted performance — ranging from over 20% improvement up to a 3.6-fold increase in energy absorption.
Outstanding engineering properties:
Temperature stability:
Ivoryguard™ performs reliably across a wide range of conditions, from -40°C to +44°C and beyond, and is currently being investigated for use in stratospheric drones that are expected to operate for extended periods at -50°C.
Sealed cells:
Closed-cell foam structure does not absorb or expand in water, and is resistant to solvent, oil, and UV exposure. Easy to clean with a damp cloth, Ivoryguard™ will not pick up odors.
Strong bonding:
Newly developed for weight savings in high-end body armor plates, Ivoryguard™ has the potential to redefine other industries. It is poised to become the material of choice for those who demand top performance at the lowest weight, combined with extreme durability and superior comfort.
