“We continue to build momentum in our Patriot Glass division and are experiencing significantly increased demand for our security film and ballistic-resistant film products, particularly at schools in Texas,” said Scott R.

We are also seeing increased activity in our Transportation Solutions Group as we get growing interest from automotive warranty companies for C-Bond nanoShield. We look forward to reporting on these opportunities throughout the remainder of 2022,” continued Silverman.

C-Bond’s glass strengthening protection solutions, including C-Bond Secure, an application to deter forced entry, and C-Bond BRS, a ballistic-resistant system, have been installed in more than 100 schools, government buildings, media sites, and other high-security facilities around the country. C-Bond’s technology is protected by 23 patents and patent-pending applications.

C-Bond’s windshield strengthener, C-Bond nanoShield™, is a first of its kind solution that protects and strengthens windshields by permeating the glass surface and repairing the microscopic flaws and defects on the glass that ultimately initiate chipping and cracking. The strengthening process begins immediately upon application and continues while the material cures in the following days. The product is easy to apply and is sprayed on and squeegeed off.
