Business Area

Intermat is widely known for its prolific involvement in the field of thermal signature management and multi-spectral stealth materials. The term “stealth” is primarily associated with changes in the reflective properties of the target. It is usually understood to result from a combination of materials and methods that significantly lower the emissions of a target, thereby effectively decreasing the enemy’s detection range.
Intermat’s prime concern is to reduce signatures, emissions, and eventually detection ranges. However, just reducing an emission is not enough, the real science is to customize and adjust the level of performance in order to meet the operational requirements (blend in with surrounding /background environment).
The objective of Intermat is to:
• Conceal against thermal observation
• Deceive heat-seeking IR sensors
• Attenuate radar signals and reducing RCS

Company Details

Intermat is a group of companies headquartered in Athens – Greece. Pioneer in Stealth Technology Coatings and materials for Military applications that have been developed after more than 20 years of R&D. We specialize in the research, development, and production of Anti-thermal/IR and Radar absorbing coatings.

Production is carried out by one of our companies under the highest standards, in compliance with the ISO 9001:2000 Quality Assurance provisions. We are proud to conform with NATO STANAG 4319 “Counter Surveillance Requirements for Future Main Battle Tanks Infrared / Thermal Aspects”. The aim of this agreement is to standardize a specification which limits the thermal /IR signature for passive counter surveillance, camouflage, and concealment of all Future Main Battle Tanks. This agreement also gives design guidelines that can be used to enable the limits to be achieved in a practical manner.

Thermal signature management - "Chameleon Series" coatings
Intermat’s core business is the research and development of anti-thermal coatings. Intermat has the technical capability and know-how to produce military colour shades of adjustable emissivity. All it takes is painting with just a thin film layer by using ordinary equipment and tools. The coatings limit the absorption and emission of heat and the user is free to decide on the amount of “insulation” or performance, whether operations take place in desert, forest, or any other terrain. Light blue and light grey colours of exceptional performance are available for the navy and helicopters; these assets operate against a very cold thermal background i.e. sea, sky, and thermal protection is vital for their survivability. Application can be made on any surface i.e. metallic or building. It is a permanent countermeasure.

Anti-thermal / anti-radar camouflage nets
Intermat can provide a wide range of camouflage nets, covers and blankets, and tents and personal camouflage.
Camouflage nets can attenuate radar signals from 5 to 100 GHz and especially from 8 to 40GHz. The level of attenuation in each band is confidential but it can be said that the level of attenuation varies from 10Db minimum up to 35Db. On top of that all fabrics are treated or painted with the anti-thermal coatings and literally any camouflage pattern can be designed. Fabrics do not need to be kept away from any hot surface; they do not get hot when placed directly on top of a warm surface. They weigh as little as 200gsm and can be engineered to meet end-user specifications, such as weight, design, pattern and performance.

Sniper and Ghillie suits
Special forces operatives deserve their own thermal countermeasure; consequently Intermat suits are treated with the anti-thermal coatings. The soldiers are protected throughout the wide IR spectrum, and the detection of a soldier is very much reduced (depending on the environmental conditions). The fabric is breathable with reduced stiffness while various types and camouflage patterns can be produced. Fabric weight can be as light as 60gsm and can be as effective as other much heavier systems since the amount of “insulation” is not achieved through thick and heavy materials

RCS reduction coatings
Intermat has achieved to develop RCS reduction coatings where RCS can be reduced by 97% (attenuation in X-band); this means than the radar detection range can be more than halved. They are compatible with the anti-thermal coatings and both formulas can be combined into one which will perform both as an anti-thermal and RCS reduction coating.
 
 
Anti-Missile Protection Shield
The complexity of the thermal signature of fixed assets is lower in comparison to that of mobile assets. Fixed assets blend more easily with the environment and they appear as land or elements of nature; by properly applying our coatings results can really be spectacular.
Coatings can be applied almost anywhere such as buildings, depots, hangars, airfield taxiways and corridors, fixed anti-aircraft systems, air condition units, and on surfaces such as concrete /cement, plaster, bricks, and asphalt (alkaline surfaces). Passive Homing Missiles (e.g. cruise missiles with heat seeking warhead) rely on there being strong contrast changes to track, and anti-thermal coatings can render them unable to "lock on". Please email us for further information on Intermat’s Anti-Missile Shield technology.
