We are a radically different advanced materials company. Our goal is to be a world-leader in the development and production of advanced materials for defense and dual-use applications, products that enhance survivability for personnel and systems. Our innovations arise from the challenges faced by the military across land, air, sea and space, for example protecting payloads during hypersonic flight and shielding sensors and human eyesight from laser attacks. Cambium’s first-of-its-kind advanced material development platform molecularly re-engineers polymers from first principles for exceptional performance, survivability and manufacturability using a suite of computational methods combined with state-of-the-art materials science, chemistry and biology. We manufacture products in a secure domestic supply chain using flexible production systems that offer defense customers and other innovators the speed and flexibility to develop critical products.
