In 2025, Integris Composites strengthened its position as a global leader in composite armour systems, ballistic protection solutions, and survivability engineering for the defence and aerospace industries.
Across military vehicle protection, aerospace survivability, naval armour integration, and tactical shield systems, Integris delivered validated, high-performance protection technologies engineered to meet modern battlefield and homeland security threats.
From executive leadership evolution to international defence exhibitions and live-fire testing with elite operators, 2025 demonstrated Integris’ commitment to advancing next-generation armour solutions.
Leadership & strategic direction in the global defence industry
The appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer reinforced Integris’ long-term strategy: accelerating innovation in advanced composite materials, lightweight armour systems, and integrated ballistic protection technologies.
A government visit to the Danish facility highlighted Integris’ contribution to European defence capability, defence-industrial resilience, and advanced materials manufacturing within NATO-aligned markets.
Global defence & aerospace event participation
In 2025, Integris maintained a robust presence at major defence industry exhibitions, aerospace trade shows, and armoured vehicle conferences, strengthening engagement with ministries of defence, OEMs, system integrators, and tactical units.
STAR Shield: Tactical shield systems validated by operators
A defining feature of 2025 was real-world validation of Integris’ STAR Shield ballistic protection system.
Paris BRI Tactical Evaluation:
Scenario-based evaluation with the BRI tactical unit supported refinements in shield geometry, weight distribution, and threat coverage.
Ohio SWAT Live-Fire Testing:
Live-fire training validated the STAR Shield under operationally realistic threat conditions, reinforcing Integris’ commitment to performance-driven tactical shield systems.
Quality certifications supporting defence program growth
AQAP 2110 NATO Quality Certification
ISO 14001 Environmental Certification
Certified European Adhesive Specialists
These certifications underpin Integris’ capability to deliver high-reliability ballistic protection systems across aerospace, naval, and armoured vehicle platforms.
Workforce expansion in defence engineering & manufacturing
In 2025, Integris expanded its workforce across the United States and Europe to support growing demand for composite armour systems and survivability engineering services.
Hiring focused on composite materials engineering, ballistic protection design, military vehicle integration, aerospace protection systems, and advanced manufacturing.
Advancing armoured vehicle survivability & next-generation combat platforms
Integris continued its longstanding collaboration with key partners on advanced armoured vehicle survivability solutions, leveraging composite armour systems engineered for high ballistic performance and lightweight integration. Notably, Integris was selected to provide advanced protection modules for the CV90 infantry fighting vehicle programme, reinforcing its reputation for delivering vehicle protection systems that meet rigorous operational requirements in demanding battle environments. Additionally, Integris was named as an armour partner to American Rheinmetall on the U.S. Army’s XM30 Combat Vehicle initiative, a multimillion-dollar modernisation programme focused on enhanced protection, mobility, and survivability — emphasising Integris’ role in composite armour design innovation for heavy tracked platforms.
Positioning for 2026
With validated ballistic protection systems, strengthened aerospace partnerships, expanded defence exhibition presence, and enhanced composite engineering capabilities, Integris Composites enters 2026 positioned for continued growth in military vehicle armour systems, aerospace protection solutions, naval survivability systems, tactical ballistic shield technologies, and advanced composite armour integration.
