What we make

Three ways we beat the elements

Aegis-Gel

Warmth without bulk

Aerogel insulation that gives apparel and gear brands a true alternative to legacy insulation — more warmth per millimeter, engineered at Michigan.

Aegis-Bio · Aegis-Flow

A hull coating that’s just paint

Anti-fouling and drag reduction for hulls and nets, applied with the equipment and workflows yards already use. Spray or roll. Room-temp cure. No biocides.

Aegis-Clear

Fog-free, finally

An anti-fog coating for glasses and goggles that keeps working after the others quit. See it for yourself — the demo says it better than we can.

Why it matters

15–30%

drag reduction demonstrated in turbulent-flow conditions relevant to real marine operation.

Zero

biocides in our anti-fouling approach — surface science does the work, not toxic release.

PFAS-free

across the entire materials platform. Performance without the forever chemicals.

Proven beyond the lab

From research to the real world

AegisCoat technologies have been validated through DARPA-supported programs, in-service field evaluations with a major European shipbuilder, U.S. Army Arctic field testing, and co-development with an automotive OEM. Defense programs stress-test our materials so commercial partners don't have to wonder.
