Just to put things in perspective, a human hair is somewhere in the neighborhood of 50-70 microns, and pollen is around 10 microns. The fine sand, also known as “moon dust,” found in places such as Afghanistan and Iraq, is 1 micron.

There’s no question you have to consider the cost of something when deciding whether to buy it. But cost and price are really two different things. A low price often hides, or delays, the true cost of something.

In order to protect high-value assets from corrosion and other damage from the elements, they’ll often be stored in controlled humidity environments (e.g., Level III Aircraft Preservation, CHP, APS). It’s a level of storage that stops the aging process.

It’s easy to inspect for rust on a gun barrel, or pitted metal on a vehicle. That’s what’s known as “gross corrosion.” What’s much harder to spot is “microscopic-level corrosion” on small but critically important components such as circuits, wiring, and telecommunications equipment.

Having spent years getting lamination right, we know first-hand how challenging it is. We tried over 150 different iterations before landing on the right combination of elements for our aviation blanket.

Air permeability is crucial in an effective cover because it prevents moisture from building up under the cover. In order to make our covers highly air-permeable, we use a patented textile that includes a remarkable membrane.

You’re probably familiar with the usual culprits of corrosion - rain, humidity, salts. But there are a number of lesser-known factors that lead to corrosion.

There’s no way to keep rain from falling, humidity from rising, or sand from blowing. In fact, the elements are relentless. Your assets are under attack 24/7/365, and every day they go unprotected, the costs of corrosion increase.
