Blast Mitigation

SCG and its partners provide turn-key blast mitigation solutions for the design, engineering and application of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) products. The provide the full spectrum of services necessary for industrial blast applications, retrofit or reinforcement for seismic events and anti-terrorism/force protection to buildings/parking garages and infrastructure such as pipelines, roadways and bridges.

Composite technology has been adopted around the world in a variety of applications where creative, cost effective and efficient structural solutions are called for. For example, one of the most effective ways to prevent collapse and minimize damage to a structure during an earthquake or explosion is to use fiber composites. As governments and private firms continue to look for cost effective, practical solutions to the structural issues being faced today, more and more clients are turning to composites for the answer.
