PROTECTION ENGINEERED FROM THE INSIDE OUT

LATTICE ARCHITECTURE

Up to 10x greater energy absorption before densification vs. conventional foam

THE TECHNOLOGY

A new class of impact-absorbing material.

Our proprietary lattice geometry is engineered at the microstructural level to control how force moves through a material — redirecting and dissipating impact energy in ways that flat-foam and standard composites fundamentally cannot. The result is superior protection at equal or lower weight and thickness.

Lighter, thinner, and tunable to any impact environment.

FORTIFYD LATTICE — ISOMETRIC VIEW

Programmable Geometry

Lattice topology tuned per application — stiffness, porosity, and energy absorption zones all controllable at design time.

Omnidirectional Protection

Architecture designed to absorb and redirect energy from any angle — not just perpendicular impact like conventional foam.

Additive Manufacturing Compatible

Architected for additive manufacturing — printable in TPU, nylon, and next-generation elastomers via SLS, FDM, or MJF.

Performance Data-Driven

Every geometry iteration validated against impact simulation and physical testing — with traceable performance vs. baseline materials.
