Michael Gordon, CEO of BlastGard, said, “Bottom line, the products already on the market could do much more to safeguard the people and property they claim to protect. Under extensive testing, BlastGard’s MTR units suppress the force of a very large charge, even when it is placed against the vulnerable sidewall weld seam. The units dramatically reduce blast pressures, instantly extinguish the fireball within 5 milliseconds, all while maintaining complete structural integrity. We are also applying this technology to many other sectors and industries that require blast mitigation protection including gear for first responders, aviation, military personnel and machinery, oil pipelines, and blast walls for buildings and embassies to limit the hazards of an explosion.”
