About D3O

D3O develops groundbreaking impact protection solutions and is a market leader in protective wear and shock absorbing materials. The Group currently supplies leading brands in the footwear, electronics, sport, motorcycle, industrial workwear, law enforcement and military protection markets.

D3O’s unique patented technology is used to make a soft and flexible material with high shock absorbing properties. In standard conditions the material’s molecules flow freely, allowing it to be soft and flexible, but on impact, lock together to dissipate the impact energy and reduce the transmitted force.

A growing range of innovative new products and international growth have enabled D3O to treble in size over the last three years and to build a customer base of leading brands and organisations. These include number one American Football helmet manufacturer Schutt Sports, Furygan the French motorcycle brand, Burton Snowboards, Snickers Workwear, the US Special Forces, and Dr Martens and Karrimor footwear.

In April, D3O raised a total of £13 million in funding from its existing investor Entrepreneurs Fund and new investor Beringea, to support the further expansion of the Company’s impact protection products and international market growth.
