Adept Armor

Adept is an armor systems engineering firm with a focus on body armor and infantry equipment. We take the most highly advanced materials — from doped boron carbide composite ceramics to exotic titanium alloys, the best grades of UHMWPE, and the rarest and most resilient foams and adhesives — and turn them into armor systems such as body armor plates which are, without exception, the best in their categories.

We are unique in at least two respects: First, because we adhere to a parametricist product development and R&D philosophy, which necessarily means that we approach development in a completely holistic manner — from the smallest components to concerns of ergonomics and armor integration into systems. Second, because we have an almost religious veneration for the materials we work with — especially steel.
