We are proud to be the largest civilian Vehicle armouring company in the world. Chosen by Volvo to be the only armouring company with global homologation and certified by Jaguar, Land Rover, Toyota, BYD, GWM and GM, we were also the first to armour an electric car in 2016, a Tesla. To the present day, CARBON produced more than 18,000 armoured vehicles with a record production of almost 4,000 vehicles in 2022, the equivalent to almost 20% of armoured cars in Brazil. We operate with an infrastructure of 40,000 square meters which consists of an armouring factory, a technical assistance center, two glass factories and a team of almost 1,000 people whose talents, specialties and skills contribute to our company’s purpose: protecting lives, dreams and achievements.
Our customer service and assistance is provided by our technicians, consultants and partners throughout the country.

We operate through production lines controlled by a digital management system and teams specialized in each stage of the armouring process, which ensures greater precision and agility throughout the whole process and deliveries. Furthermore, before the armouring is completed, each vehicle is submitted to a functional and aesthetic audit to guarantee that the automotive manufacturers' quality requirements have been fulfilled.
We offer high production capacity for armouring and continuously investments in our sustainable expansion to keep up with the growing demand from the domestic and international markets.
Our Process Engineering team supervises the entire systems and operations management process, ensuring that the established objectives are achieved and that continuous improvements are implemented.
Through rigorous evaluation processes, our engineers analyze on a daily basis the best way to improve each of the projects developed, combining ballistic efficiency with the comfort, safety and driving characteristics of the vehicles.
We have a Project Engineering team dedicated to developing products that meet the specific needs of each vehicle’s brand and model. Ensuring precision and standardization in the manufacture and application of ballistic materials for armouring with a high level of protection.
To keep up with the growing demand for armoured vehicle supplies on the market and to offer materials with a high standard of quality, such as Kevlar® e Tensylon™ from our partner Dupont ™ , our engineers have developed the line of armoured glass Graffeno which offers optical comfort and superior transparency.
