Near Infrared Reflective (NIRR) Coatings

Conventional camouflage coatings are used to blend in military equipment with the natural surroundings, in the visible light spectrum.

With the increasing use of infrared detection devices in military operations, military  equipment has become vulnerable to detection, particularly during combat operations conducted at night.

The ability to manage both the visible and infrared signature has become critical to maximising soldier survivability and combat strengths.

The CIA range of NIRR Military Coatings from Axalta Coating Systems has been developed in consultation with the Australian Department of Defence, to reduce detection to surveillance and seeker systems, without impairing the visual  camouflage characteristics.
