AND UNLIMITED POSSIBILITIES
Introduction to our ballistic material Invicta
Invicta ™ is a extremely strong human made fiber that provides maximum strength with minimal weight. This means that the number of possible applications is virtually unlimited.
-
Up to 15 times stronger than steel (kr by kg)
-
Invicta is an equal or perhaps better material than other well-known high-performance human made fibers. Invicta are also available in a more affordable price range
-
Up to 40% stronger than aramids (kg by kg)
-
Floats on water and is resistant to moisture, UV, chemicals and more

For military, law enforcement and other agencies in high-risk environments; Invicta ™ technology-based bulletproof products raise the level of what's possible. It provides maximum protection in a lighter, more flexible solution that improves comfort, mobility and efficiency across all levels of protection (NIJ 0101.06, EN 1522, VPAM).
Invicta ™ is manufactured in a spinning process where the fibres are pulled, heated, elongated and then cooled. Stretching and spinning lead to a molecular linear adjustment, high crystallization and low density. Through this High Tec production method Invicta ™ has extremely long molecular chains that transfer the load more efficiently to the polymer backbone than all other fibres. That way it is stronger with the same weight or lighter with the same strength than other alternatives that exist today. These options are often Aramid-based products, such as Kevlar or Twaron. At the same time, the material possesses a number of other valuable properties.
Invicta ™ is perhaps the world's strongest fibre, with extraordinary properties.
The tables below are meant as a visualization of Invicta™ up against aramid and steel to showcase superior characteristics. Invicta ™ is not impaired by ordinary storage.
after impact with an excellent result
No penetration or small back face trauma. These examples are tested according to the standards and requirements set in NIJ STANDARD-0101.06. We do also posess tests and can perform tests in a various of other standards for different parts of the globe. Our capability to stop projectiles are not limited to these examples. We have also products that can stop 12.7 ball ammo (.50 Cal).

A 7.62 armour piercing incidiary round after impacting
This particular bullet was extracted from the NIJ IV example above. Our stand alone body plates have been known to stop up to six shots of 7.62 armour piercing incindiary rounds.
OTHER APPLICATIONS
Invicta is a super strong and versitile fibre.
As offshore exploration and production move into increasingly deeper water, the need for higher capacity lifting, lowering, and mooring becomes more prevalent. And that is why offshore experts have come to count on high performance synthetic ropes for safe and light-weight solution such as ropes made out of Invicta™, that increase winch efficiency and remote operated vehicles can easily manipulate.
Arma has the rights to our manufacturer’s internal developed innovative and effective products for different offshore (and onshore) related applications. Together with our partner we provide unparalleled service package to the offshore oil and gas industry, fishing industry and the general industry. This service package includes access to applied knowledge, technical support and product training and service.
Our partner in Taiwan have manufactured rope since 1981 and are now using Invicta to create some of the sptrongest ropes and nets ever seen. We meet the ISO 9001 Standards and are certified by ABS, DNV CE, Lloyds and others. The Annual production capacity of 150 tons facilitates short lead times and realiability.
Working alongside customers to solve the challenges posed by critical offshore applications
Partnering with fibre, coating and rope suppliers has been crucial to determine how best to exploit their achievements in developing new products to overcome traditional limitations.
