About BlastGard International, Inc.

BlastGard International, Inc. was created to design, develop, manufacture and market proprietary blast mitigation materials. The Company's patent-pending BlastWrap(TM) technology effectively mitigates blast effects and suppresses post-blast fires. This unique technology can be used to create new, finished products or to retrofit to existing products. While the need for this technology has always been present, the security and safety concerns resulting from the September 11, 2001 acts and the subsequent development of Homeland Security make the timing of the Company's emergence even more important. The Company's core market focus is on blast effects mitigation for the commercial sector, military, law enforcement and government agencies. BlastWrap(TM) is based upon well-defined principles and suppresses blast pressures by 50% or more. BlastWrap(TM) products are made from two flexible films arranged one over the other and joined by a plurality of seams filled with attenuating filler material (volcanic glass bead or other suitable two-phase materials), configurable (designed for each application) with an extinguishing coating that offers a revolutionary blast protection system against Blast & Fire/burn threats. BlastWrap(TM) is a blast mitigation assembly that can be wrapped around or conform to any shape. BlastWrap(TM) is a concept (not a chemical compound) from which blast protection products are built to save lives and reduce damage to valuable assets from explosions.
