“Historically the first quarter of the year is always our lowest revenue quarter, but I am proud to say that revenue generated for Q1 2021 was the highest in the Company’s history by a substantial amount,” stated Scott R. Silverman, Chairman and CEO of C-Bond. “We expect revenues for the remaining quarters of this year to be incrementally higher and we are working diligently to grow the business and meet the $2.1 million 2021 annual revenue target we set earlier this year.”

C-Bond’s glass strengthening protection solutions, including C-Bond Secure, which is an application to deter forced entry, and its ballistic-resistant system, C-Bond BRS, have been installed in more than 80 schools, government buildings, media sites, and other high-security facilities around the country.

C-Bond’s windshield strengthener, C-Bond nanoShield™, is a first-of-its-kind solution that protects and strengthens windshields by permeating the glass surface and repairing the microscopic flaws and defects on the glass that initiate chipping and cracking. The strengthening process begins immediately upon application and continues while the material cures in the following days. The product is easy to apply; it is sprayed on and squeegeed off.

C-Bond’s technology is protected by 22 patents and patent-pending applications.
