Applications

ESCO's use of an engineered material for controlled deceleration is a first in this industry. Since introducing our development work in the early 1990s, we have continued to improve and refine our materials through dedicated investment in research and development initiatives.

Besides proving the capability to safely decelerate aircraft, from small commuter planes to wide-body jets such as the Boeing B-747, the technology is also proving its capability to decelerate threat vehicles.

Due to the material's unique characteristic of providing predictable and reliable performance, we believe that the technology will find other applications.
