About Us

 

The two main principals are Gary Trott, CEO/inventor, and Michael Weber, CLO. Our products protect officers and others including suspects so they can all go home. ThorBoard is the lightest, most resistant clear ballistic shield on the market.  We needed it to be instantly available so we built the grab and go door mount. Body armor and ThorBoard work well together.  Body armor does not protect the head, neck and shoulders, ThorBoard does.  We protect the areas that body armor does not.

We have found with AR15 and AK rifle testing that while these rounds may have penetrated the shield, the rounds were slowed so much that they stopped at the vest. We are testing this further, and have just created the new level 3 tile, that allows Thorboard to be field upgraded.  

Thorboard is optically clear, so when looking around a corner (peek), the head is protected with ThorBoard. When seeking shelter behind an engine block where the officer cannot see, ThorBoard is used to allow the officer to to see around the vehicle and still be while protected. If seeking shelter behind the vehicle door, our door mount offers enhanced protection. If in a hallway, it offers shelter when none exists. For suspicious vehicles and traffic stops, it protects the officer.

 

But more than that, ThorBoard buys the officer time. If the driver is reaching for perhaps a wallet and a gun appears, the officer is protected. If it is indeed a wallet, the officer has more time to make a better solution.  Both parties go home. ThorBoard is a de-escalation tool, a current hot topic. It is also used for serving warrants where small spaces are the norm.

Warranty: Thorboard is provided with a 7-year warranty against yellowing and material defects. It is manufactured to ISO standards and is a patented product.

 

We will continue to develop new innovative and practical products to our law enforcement you safe. If you want to know more call me, write me. If you have a special need, talk to me and we will try to create a solution. We will soon deliver a level 3 foldable shield which can be used on a podium.

 

Stay safe,

Gary R. Trott
