AirBoss Defense Group is a survivability solutions provider whose customers include the U.S. military, first responders, and healthcare workers on the front lines. Sentinel’s involvement with AirBoss Defense Group began with an investment in Critical Solutions International (“CSI”), a leading global supplier of landmine and improvised explosive device detection vehicles, systems, and support services to U.S. and foreign military forces. CSI’s primary product, the Vehicle-Mounted Mine Detection system, is a unique, lifesaving vehicle that is highly effective at detecting all forms of land-based explosive devices. In 2020, CSI merged with the defense subsidiary of AirBoss of America Corp. (TSX: BOS), which provides mission-critical and lifesaving personal protective equipment to withstand chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and toxic industrial chemical exposure. The merger created AirBoss Defense Group, a global leader in personal protective equipment and route clearance solutions. AirBoss has been a critical supplier to the U.S. government in the fight against Covid with a suite of products geared to the safety of frontline healthcare workers.
