DuPont is constantly assessing the needs of the military. It drives our science and thinking, and has led to important innovations ideally suited for protecting soldiers and optimizing equipment.
Bullet-resistant Kevlar®, for example, has saved thousands of lives, and is standard-issue for almost every U.S. combat soldier serving in the Middle East. It’s in everything, from protective vests and helmets to the lining of housing and armored vehicles. The military also relies on high-performance lubricants like DuPont Krytox to maintain and maximize equipment’s potential.
As it has been for more than 200 years, DuPont is devoted to providing soldiers with the tools they need to protect themselves, as they risk their lives in the defense of our great nation.
