Material Selection
Throughyearsof liveblastandballistic testing, Jankelhavecompiledandvalidateda range of materials that meet specific and stringent requirements in relation tostructure and protection. Using this proprietary database, Jankel engineers can ensure a material selection that optimises cost and weight whilst maintaining performance. Jankel strive to utilise cutting-edge technologies in both material construction andfabrication to create the most advanced protection solutions on the market.
