Global innovation leader Milliken & Company and SSZ Camouflage Technology AG of Switzerland announced an agreement making Milliken the exclusive licensee of SSZ Camouflage Technology's multispectral camouflage technology in the United States.
By significantly reducing the thermal signature on fabrics, SSZ Camouflage Technology's infrared camouflage technology goes beyond the current visual and near infrared range (NIR) to provide concealment in the mid wave infrared range (MWIR), reducing the risk of detection from thermal infrared imagers. Milliken will incorporate the SSZ infrared camouflage technology into its performance fabrics to provide U.S Military personnel with better concealment, adding yet another layer of protection to their uniforms.Global innovation leader Milliken & Company and SSZ Camouflage Technology AG of Switzerland announced an agreement making Milliken the exclusive licensee of SSZ Camouflage Technology's multispectral #
Tested by the Swiss Army and others, fabrics with this camouflage technology maintain breathability and moisture vapor permeability, making them both comfortable and highly protective.
“Milliken and SSZ Camouflage Technology are transforming how the U.S. Armed Forces think about the performance of their uniforms,” said Sim Skinner, President, Milliken Performance Products. “If the enemy can't see you, they can't target you. With this new level of concealment technology, warfighters can dramatically reduce the risk of detection and continue to own the night.”
Milliken partners with customers and suppliers to respond to the needs of the U.S. Military with innovative performance materials. By combining textiles and chemistry, Milliken produces fabrics that advance protection capabilities and lighten the load in structures, clothing, and equipment, resulting in greater mobility, and an increased chance of survivability.
