At Eurosatory 2012, which will be held in Paris from June 11 to 15th, DSM Dyneema will be showcasing its recent developments in ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) technology as well as the latest innovations of customers' life protection applications made with Dyneema®.
30 Apr 2012
Greenville, N.C., United States of America, 30 April 2012 - DSM Dyneema today announced several important new accomplishments at its ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) materials manufacturing facility located here that underscore the company’s growing global position as a leading supplier of advanced materials solutions for the life protection industry. These include the opening of a new facility for the manufacture of Dyneema® Ballistic Tape; the critical role the company played in Ceradyne Inc.’s successful development of the new Enhanced Combat Helmet (ECH) for the United States Marine Corps and Army, and ongoing investment in cutting-edge product development.

STANLEY, N.C. – March 15, 2012 - DSM Dyneema today announced that its Dyneema® HB80 unidirectional (UD) composite – one of the highest ballistic performance UD materials on the market today – played a critical role in Ceradyne Inc.’s successful development of the new Enhanced Combat Helmet (ECH) for the United States Marine Corps and Army. Ceradyne chose Dyneema® HB80 to provide the highest level of ballistic protection for the ECH. Compared to the existing Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) which is made with aramid fibers, the new ECH with Dyneema® HB80 provides protection and exceeds the ECH program requirement for better fragmentation performance than ACH, all without increasing helmet weight. HB80 is also the only material that passes the stringent ECH testing.

The Netherlands, October 17, 2011 - SB71, a new and innovative ballistic material from DSM Dyneema, is a uni-directional (UD) grade made of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber which demonstrates improved performance. This ultimately is reflected in a lower weight protection system that meets current requirements in North America and Germany.
17 Oct 2011
The Netherlands, October 17, 2011 - DSM Dyneema has announced the global introduction of a new innovative light weight ballistic material for use in Law Enforcement and Military protective vests. High performance Dyneema® SB71, a unidirectional (UD) grade made of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber from DSM Dyneema, was specifically designed and developed for use in ballistic vests certified under NIJ0101.06. Vests made with SB71 combine lowest possible weight with the highest protection performance. The new material advances the protection level achievable with Soft Ballistic (SB) armor by building on a new technology platform first established with Dyneema® SB51 from DSM Dyneema in 2010.
