Hall 3, Seletar
Assembly
Every Monolith is assembled by hand on the same line as our armoured vehicles. The technicians don't talk about the vehicles either.
About us
We built armour for things that get shot at. Then someone asked for a helmet.
For nearly forty years Ironvale has made composite armour, airframes and hulls for clients who prefer not to be named. Kage, Japanese for shadow, is what happens when that engineering is pointed at a single rider on an empty expressway at 2am.

Contracts we can discuss

Seletar
Ironvale opens its Asian facility at Seletar Aerospace Park. Mostly for the weather.
- 2004
The plate
First aramid and carbon composite armour plate. Lighter than steel, harder to explain at dinner parties.

Cancelled
A defence tender for an armoured scout motorcycle is cancelled. The prototype is quietly moved to the civilian lab.
- 2024
Kage
The civilian division launches with four helmets, a riding jacket, and that prototype. It is now called the Monolith.
Range B, Zurich
Ballistics
Each helmet shell design is tested behind four inches of glass by people who are paid not to flinch. We publish the results to nobody.
Finishing, Seletar
Finish
Six coats, robot-applied, hand-sanded between each. The matte black was originally developed so things would be harder to see.

Composite plating for vehicles, vessels and structures.
RestrictedIronvale Aerospace
Unmanned airframes and the hangars to hide them in.
RestrictedIronvale Marine
Hulls that are faster than they look.
RestrictedKage
