C-Bond Systems is a small nanotechnology company whose sole operating business is Patriot Glass Solutions (PGS), an 80%-owned Texas-based subsidiary that installs and sells window film products for automotive, residential, and commercial customers. PGS's core offerings include C-Bond BRS, a ballistic-resistant window film system that strengthens glass to NIJ and UL 752 standards, and C-Bond Secure, a nanotechnology-based glass strengthening primer that deters forced entry and improves window film adhesion. These security-oriented products are targeted at schools, government buildings, police and emergency services, and airports. PGS also installs general solar, decorative, and reflective films. C-Bond positions its security products as lower-cost alternatives to traditional bullet-resistant glass solutions like polycarbonate and glass laminate, which require structural retrofits. Revenue is driven primarily by direct installation jobs in Texas, with a developing authorized dealer network intended to expand distribution nationally. C-Bond's proprietary solutions — C-Bond BRS and C-Bond Secure — are supplied exclusively by CB Nanoshield, a third party that acquired C-Bond's nanoShield product line, creating a single-source supply dependency. The business is small-scale, with PGS generating roughly $2M in annual revenue and employing 19 people as of year-end 2023.
