“Ceradyne’s strategy is to combine its successful track record in body
armor programs with the proprietary helmet-forming technologies of
Diaphorm to create a world class manufacturer of Enhanced Combat
Helmets,” according to Ceradyne’s June 9 press release.
“Ceradyne-Diaphorm’s Enhanced Combat Helmet will provide substantively
increased levels of protection, utilizing high-volume repeatable
manufacturing with reliable on-time delivery to support expedited
procurements.”
“Our Enhanced Combat Helmet team is very pleased
and excited regarding this recent award,” says David Reed, president of
North American Operations for Ceradyne. “This type of product is
exactly what we had in mind when we developed our diversification and
acquisition strategy – taking advantage of our state-of-the-art
ballistic technology in areas of the military where our past
performance and quality are already established. This strategy led
directly to our recent Diaphorm acquisition.
“Our intention is
to maintain the helmet research and development activities in Salem,
New Hampshire, and, assuming a production award, implement a production
volume helmet line in our state-of-the-art ‘lean’ armor assembly plant
in Irvine,” continues Reed.
Ceradyne develops, manufactures, and
markets advanced technical ceramic products and components for defense,
industrial, automotive/diesel, and commercial applications.
