Amtech began producing the Helmet Hardtops® product line in 1991, and has been in production with other products since 1987. In 1998, Amtech‘s Helmet Hardtop® was evaluated at Aberdeen Test Center where it successfully completed a rigorous test program and was certified as an authorized replacement for canvas on the HMMWV. The comprehensive test program included numerous performance tests that supported the versatile applicability of the Hardtop for use on the HMMWV. Amtech’s Helmet Hardtops® are the only products of their kind to be tested at Aberdeen Test Center.

Amtech has the manufacturing infrastructure necessary to support anticipated and unanticipated product requirements. An example of this was demonstrated during the military build-up for Operation Iraqi Freedom. Monthly production rates had averaged less than 50 units per month. With the onset of combat operations, and an immediate requirement for more Helmet Hardtops®, Amtech was capable of increasing production up to 800 units per month, an increase of Helmet Hardtops® of over 2,000%!
