The cutting-edge camouflage and apparel solutions company, Kryptek Outdoor Group, has set up a "Camouflage Technologies" division, which has evolved from the expertise gained during the US Army Camo Improvement solicitation. Kryptek Camouflage Technologies (KCT) provides passive concealment solutions, customised to region, environment, and organisation.

KCT dovetails with Kryptek's combat apparel capabilities allowing a complete turnkey solution for units, organisations and countries that desire functional and effective uniforms while gaining separation and advantage from legacy camouflage options that have saturated various Areas of Operations.

As well as providing functional concealment options, KCT also addresses the psychological aspect of camouflage. "When used for combat or counter terror operations, the need to 'identify friend or foe,' or IFF, is becoming more of a concern as legacy patterns now saturate the market and are easily obtained. Kryptek can provide combat apparel options that are customised for units, while controlling the fabric printing process. This enhances the security of the programme for the end user," says Butch Whiting, Kryptek Outdoor Group CEO.

KCT delivers a unique approach to obtaining combat apparel. Rather than just licensing or selling a pattern to an interested consumer, a complete package option is developed specifically to accommodate the end user.

"Apparel Programmes with various Coalition Special Operations units have been underway with KCT for the past two years," says Josh Cleghorn, president of Kryptek Outdoor Group. "When you couple our premium combat apparel collection with our KCT capabilities, you have a unique option, especially for foreign organisations that are less bureaucratic and want to move relatively rapidly."

KCT has developed 20 never-before-seen camouflage patterns. (SV)
