Integris Composites, Inc.

Integris Composites, Inc., doing business as Ten Cate Advanced Armor USA, manufactures ballistic protective equipment — enhanced small arms protective inserts (ESAPI), X-side ballistic inserts (XSBI), and maritime buoyant plates — for the U.S. Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor (94% of awards) under full-and-open and Total Small Business set-aside competition. The company is a self-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Hebron, Ohio, and is a child of Koninklijke Ten Cate B.V. (Royal Ten Cate), a foreign-owned parent organization.

Integris Composites operates almost exclusively under the Vital Torso Protection - Body Armor IDIQ with the Army's Program Executive Office Soldier, which anchors the vast majority of its federal footprint. Sixteen task orders placed under that IDIQ carry a combined potential value of $257.8 million and represent the core of the vendor's recent work. The company also holds a multiple-award indefinite delivery contract with Naval Sea Systems Command for personal protective equipment maritime buoyant plates (ceiling value $6.5 million, awarded February 2026). Recent prime work includes a $24.2 million firm fixed-price delivery order issued May 21, 2026, for small arms protective inserts under the Vital Torso Protection IDIQ with an ultimate completion date of May 21, 2027; a $36 million full-rate production order placed May 19, 2025, for ESAPI plate variants; and a $26.5 million delivery order placed July 31, 2025, for small arms protective inserts. The company also fulfilled a $278,484 Total Small Business purchase order from Air Force Global Strike Command in August 2023 for advanced ballistic armor vehicle equipment at Minot Air Force Base.

Customer concentration is extreme: the Army's PEO Soldier accounts for $836.6 million (76% of combined potential value) across seventeen awards, while the Army Materiel Command Security Assistance Command holds sixty-eight awards carrying $153.3 million. Together these two Army customer segments represent 79% of Integris Composites' recent award volume. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles division, the Navy, and the Marine Corps round out the federal customer base, collectively representing the remaining $101.7 million in potential value. The vendor's NAICS concentration aligns with its product focus: 69 awards fall under Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing (NAICS 339113), the primary code for body armor; 97 awards carry PSC Armor, Personal.

Integris Composites subcontracts on advanced aerospace and ground-vehicle armor programs. The vendor supplied armor components to Bell Textron for the Future Vertical Lift Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) program across multiple developmental phases (October 2024, April 2025), provided custom vehicle armor to American Rheinmetall Vehicles on the XM30 next-generation infantry fighting vehicle program (November 2024), delivered common aerospace commodities to Boeing for UH-1N replacement helicopter systems (September 2026, November 2023), supplied ballistics research support to Booz Allen Hamilton for the Army's Soldier Protection Directorate (August 2023), and provided lightweight vehicle armor to Battelle Memorial Institute (November 2023).
