In December 2016 ProtectiFlex underwent Blast trials at RAF Spadeadam. This trial pitted ProtectiFlex against a charge equivalent in size to a car bomb for a range of wall thickness and standoff distances.
The results were impressive. In every case ProtectiFlex exceeded the standard set for masonry concrete for equivalent thicknesses and density. TPS states in summary that"ProtectiFlex is able to compete with heavier blocks whilst providing comparable levels of protection" and Protectiflex walls demonstrated “additional reserves of capacity."
