About Protective Systems
As part of Saint-Gobain, the Protective Systems division of Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics is integrated into an international network of sophisticated research and development labs, product design expertise, and best-in-class production facilities.
Our fabric technology capabilities were enhanced in 2000 when Saint-Gobain acquired Chemfab Corporation -- a leader in the development of C/B shelter systems and other protective equipment for the military, fire fighters and others.
Since then, Protective Systems has combined Chemfab's specific knowledge of composite protective fabrics with the powerful resources of Saint-Gobain to create hazmat protective gear that outperforms anything on the market.
