Inflation and Looming Recession to Haunt Businesses:

In 2022 & 2023, market players expected to sail in rough waters; might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain. Further, U.S. economy is expected to grow merely by 3% in 2022. Purchasing power in the country is expected to fell nearly by 2.5%.
On the other hand, European countries to see the worst coming in the form of energy crisis especially in upcoming winters!! Right after COVID-19, inflation has started gripping the economies across the globe. Higher than anticipated inflation, especially in western world had raised concerns for national banks and financial institutions to control the economic loss and safeguard the interest of the businesses. Increased interest rates, strong USD inflated oil prices, looming prices for gas and energy resources due to Ukraine-Russia conflict, China economic slowdown (~4% in 2022) disrupting the production and global supply chain and other factors would impact each industry negatively.

In The News

On February 06, 2018, Craig International Ballistics acquired advanced robotic equipment for Non Destructive Testing (NDT) on body armour plates. The equipment is used to detect internal breakage in ceramic composite and ensures product integrity.

Introduction to Ballistic Protection

Ballistic protection protects the body and eyes from various projectiles of different shapes, sizes and velocities. Ballistic protection includes ballistic helmets, body armour and hand-held armour. Ballistic helmet protects the security personnel from antipersonnel fragments. Body armour come up with the protection against low and high energy bullets or even stab from knives. Hand held armour helps to defeat low energy bullets and generally consists of ballistic shields. Different designs, materials and structures are used for ballistic protection owing to the type and level of threat. The selection of material for ballistic protection is made on the back of its efficiency and ability to absorb energy.
