Advanced Technology

Alpine Armoring is proud to lead the field of armoring non-military vehicles, offering our clients the latest in-house available technology unmatched in the industry.

Manufacturing armoured vehicles is a highly specialized field. It requires uniquely skilled and experienced technicians, fabricators, and certified welders with specialized skills. To achieve optimum quality product, the manufacturing process requires access to the latest technology and state of the art equipment producing the perfect cuts (ballistic steel and other composite materials) for each specific application in the armoring structure.

This is achieved by utilizing state-of-the-art laser machines, water jets, plasma cutters, and sophisticated CNC machines. We apply numerous precision techniques to fabricate each ballistically armored piece exactly according to its engineered CAD drawing.

Components & Ballistic Material

The uncompromising goal is to retrofit the armoring conversion of the vehicle with the lightest possible method while guaranteeing the most protective structure outcome possible. With years of field experience and numerous patents on hand, Alpine is able to offer our clients the perfect armored vehicle no matter what the end user’s application may be.

In many instances, especially for sedans and SUVs, we have the luxury to incorporate different composite ballistic materials. These include laminated Dyneema®, woven Kevlar®, many types of polyethylene ballistic and blast protection material, and various grades of armored ceramic including aluminum carbide, boron carbide, and silicon carbide.

Unlike the competition, our engineering team selectively designs each component for each make and model vehicle. Alpine Armoring uses a variety of ballistic armoured material, including armored plate steel of different Brinell grades (Mil specs 46100, and Mil-A-32332) with Ultra High-Hardness (UHA) wrought steel armor application.

The ballistic light steel is typically applied with thickness from 3mm to 14mm offering protection covering levels of Alpine A4 to A12, as well as VR7, VR9, VPAM and NIJ Certified levels.

Production

Over the past three decades we’ve successfully managed the integration and manufacturing of our armored SUVs, armoured sedans, and armored trucks (including SWAT and armored APC trucks) to meet the increasing demands of discerning VIP clients who require custom armoring with exclusive specifications.

With manufacturing plants totaling well over 150,000 square feet in capacity, Alpine is positioned to handle mass production for orders of up to 30 vehicles per month for our clients. This includes corporate and institutional clients including Fortune 500 companies, the United States Government (nearly all the agencies and departments), the United Nations, various NGOs and more than 75 foreign governments.
