Laser Cutting - Defense & Military

Laser Cut Kevlar Helmets

Department of Defense work is unlike that for commercial clients – from different contracts and processes to government audits that aren’t part of private-sector work. And because we’re a frequent subcontractor to the DOD, Ambox is able to work efficiently and effectively under sometimes complex governmental regulations, ensuring that our public-sector clients receive the same fast, dependable and accurate work as privately held companies.
