Armox® protection steel: Protection that reinforces vital infrastructure

Armox® protection steel provides dependable security for critical infrastructure, protecting people, assets, and the essential systems that keep society running.

Essential systems demand proven protection

Infrastructure plays a vital role in keeping societies connected, secure, and functioning. These assets require robust, long-lasting protection. Armox® protection steel offers dependable ballistic and blast resistance to safeguard essential operations—where even the smallest disruption can have wide-reaching consequences.

Armox® steel can be found in:

  • Power stations and energy facilities
  • Border control posts and customs stations
  • Communication and data infrastructure
  • Transportation terminals and hubs
  • Water treatment and utility facilities
  • Public safety and emergency response centers

Key protection areas include:

  • Doors
  • Window frames
  • Walls
  • Perimeter walls and barriers
  • Guard posts & reception areas
  • Storage units, shelters, and containers

Steel that protects against multiple threats

Infrastructure is exposed to a range of threats including ballistic impacts, blast pressure, and forced entry. Armox® and Ramor steels are engineered to handle these challenges in one material, simplifying protection while delivering dependable performance.

UNDERSTANDING LEVELS OF RISK

Retrofitting for critical infrastructure

Retrofitting critical infrastructure comes with limitations, especially when space is tight or the original design wasn’t made for added protection. Armox® and Ramor steels offer high performance in slim profiles, making it easier to upgrade existing structures with minimal disruption to function or layout.

Securing large footprints and multiple entry points

Large facilities often have complex layouts with multiple access points and wide surface areas. Armox® protection steel allows for focused protection where it’s needed most, using overlapping joins and targeted reinforcement to reduce overbuilding and improve efficiency.
