Survival Armor Awarded a New Department of Homeland Security Contract


Survival Armor Inc.’s President, Larry McCraney, is proud to announce that Survival Armor, Fort Myers, Florida, has been awarded a new Department of Homeland Security Contract. The contract was awarded as of November 15th 2011 by the Department of Homeland Security. The 5 year award includes up to 75,000 ballistic vests plus components.

Survival Armor Inc. received the award after participants were narrowed down based on strict ballistic requirements and a comprehensive wear test.

The Falcon06 and Phoenix06 models that Survival Armor will be providing were designed by the ballistic experts at Survival Armor and will be solely manufactured by Survival Armor, which has been deemed compliant to manufacture these models using the NIJ 0101.06 compliance letter issued only to Survival Armor Inc., and under the strict ISO 9001quality standards. These ballistic packages, in addition to being NIJ compliant, also meet the rigorous standards of the DHS, as well as, the NAVSEA requirements of the US Navy.

Cathy Lowe National Sales Manager is excited that the patented technologies that are incorporated in these models will increase both the wearability and peace of mind of the DHS officers who insure our safety.
