Founded in 2009, Mobius Protection Systems (Mobius) specializes in delivering energy-absorbing seat systems for armored military vehicles using its patented SPIRAL technology. A global enterprise based in Holon, Israel, the company supplies over 26 countries, including Israel, Canada, the United States, Spain, the United Kingdom, Australia, Switzerland, and Turkey.
Mobius equips its armored vehicle seats with its patented SPIRAL technology, a uniquely designed mechanism capable of absorbing and mitigating high energy blasts and lowering gravitation (g) forces to occupants. The SPIRAL technology is a single element spiral design that elongates during a blast and absorbs the energy, transferring it to the SPIRAL mechanism rather than the occupant. Mobius’ SPIRAL can take the g-force of a blast from 600 g’s, a lethal level, to 25 g’s, a high but survivable level. To assure its seats’ safety, the company conducts rigorous testing (e.g., dynamic, blast, drop, vibration), ensuring the seats deliver a low dynamic response index and putting occupants at lower risk of spinal damage, even with repeat blasts. Mobius’ seat solutions are highly reliable, ensuring clients’ safety and protection in the unfortunate incident of a blast attack. Mobius offers solutions for troops, crew, driver, and gunner seats for a range of armored vehicles; vehicles include logistic trucks, main battle tanks, infantry combat vehicles, armored personnel carriers, mine-protected armored vehicles, and light armored vehicles. Part of the seats’ technology is its ability to attenuate protection based on the occupant’s size, allowing it to accommodate a range of user heights and weights, from fifth percentile females to 95th percentile males. Mobius’ seats install via mountings on walls, floors, or roofs, depending on a client’s need and vehicle type. Moreover, the seats are also customizable to provide optimal functionality and feature a folding back, folding pan, and an adjustable headrest. Furthermore, when a client partners with Mobius, the company’s engineering team maintains direct communications with the client to tailor the seat solution to the client’s specific needs.
