GigaCrete has had a product under development for a long time called BallistiCrete, a Company registered trademark.  Ballistic resistant plaster or stucco is an unusual product to find but was actually one of the very first products to be developed by GigaCrete as a Hurricane resistant stucco when the Company was first founded.  Now the newer version is capable of stopping multiple shots of 9mm, .40 caliber, .357 magnum and rifle bullets up to AK-47 7.62 rounds at near point blank range.  BallistiCrete is mixed and applied on site like any normal plaster or stucco but is ceramic hard and capable of stopping deadly fire from most weaponry available in the marketplace.  The Military have showed great interest and demonstrations are planned in Virginia to show ease of installation and extreme performance characteristics.  Their interest includes protective coatings for our troops stationed in Afghanistan and Iraq.
