AirBoss-Defense, a division of AirBoss of America Corp, is pleased to announce the receipt of the first major order of Chemical Warfare agent protective overboots from the US Joint Services (USJS). This order, which is valued at approximately $9.8M USD will be manufactured starting in the 4th quarter of 2006 and delivered during the ensuing 12 month period.
Pursuant to two contracts awarded in 2005, AirBoss-Defense will be the sole supplier of Chemical- Biological protective footwear (AFS overboots) and hand wear (JB2, Type II gloves) to the US Joint services. This order represents the first major release on these two contracts, which are anticipated to continue through 2010.
All products manufactured are subject to testing conducted by independent laboratories which have caused delays in shipping in 2006 and make it difficult to predict the timing of sales by fiscal quarter. Ceiling contract values, if option quantities are exercised are US $88 million for overboots and $33 million for gloves.
AirBoss of America Corp develops, manufactures, and sells high quality, proprietary rubber-based products offering enhanced performance and productivity to transportation, military and industrial markets. With a capacity to supply over 250 million pounds of rubber annually to a diverse group of rubber manufacturers, AirBoss is also one of North America's largest custom rubber compounding companies.
