Admitted to AIM in March 2003 Pentagon Protection PLC is a global security specialist company focused on the development and application of high performance window film, energy saving and security solutions for clients around the globe.
As experts in enhanced security and blast mitigation, in September 2008 Pentagon acquired SDS Group Limited, which supplies security equipment, including highly-specialist security and search equipment, mainly to governments, police forces and security and defence forces in the UK and around the world. SDS has strong relationships with customers and extends their offering to clients by providing expert knowledge and further training and consultancy. The acquisition of SDS is in support of the group plans for continued expansion in the security marketplace.
In 2010 Pentagon acquired International Glass Solutions, LLC, which specialises in window film installation and project management services for commercial and government buildings, retail clients and large office buildings around the world. Based in the United States, IGS improves the groups capability and increases our exposure and reach into the North American market.
