The effects of routine blast exposures present an occupational hazard to military personnel and emerging evidence reflects the risk and inherent deleterious effects of cumulative low-level blast exposures countinues to amass.
Our Veteran owned, U.S. based small business is committed to reducing the exposure & impact of the excessive occupational exposure to low-level blast firing heavy weapons in the military. This is something our ownership group has unique insight & familiarity with. To that end, our founding member designed & developed the Pelta-6 TM, a Patent-Pending modudular personal protective equipment (PPE) attachment meant for the training environment and can quickly be deployed or removed from the back of a soldier's helmet using existing rail system for FAST, ACH & MICH helmets. The Pelta-6 has been tested to reduce blast overpressure exposure as much as 50% to the vulnerable region of the base of the skull & top of the spine while enhancing instead of hindering the weapon & crew's effectiveness.
This first of it's kind PPE presents an effective and scalable system to mitigate overpressure building on existing military equipment used by the U.S. Military & our Allies.
