About ArmorDillo: American-Made Protection Built Tougher
ArmorDillo Corp. makes heavy-duty, contractor-grade and industrial surface protection products for construction professionals, painters, remodelers, manufacturers, automotive businesses, original equipment manufacturers and serious DIYers.
Our products aren’t designed to be the cheapest protective films on the internet. They’re engineered to be thicker, stronger, easier to use and cleaner to remove.
We also work directly with manufacturers seeking specialized surface-protection solutions for metal, plastic, glass, painted components, automotive parts, electrical equipment and other finished surfaces. If it needs protection during manufacturing, handling, storage, transportation or installation, chances are ArmorDillo can protect it. That’s the ArmorDillo difference.
Lab-Tested. Proven Tougher.
A lot of companies print “heavy duty” or “professional grade” on the package. We prefer proof. Side-by-side laboratory testing against comparable competing films has shown that ArmorDillo films are:
- At least 40% thicker
- 350% stronger in tear resistance
- Easier to apply and handle
- Engineered for cleaner removal
- Built to withstand demanding professional and industrial use
That additional thickness and tear strength create a more substantial protective barrier against punctures, ripping, abrasion, spills, overspray, dirt and everyday jobsite or manufacturing abuse. Thin film may cost less on the roll. It gets expensive when it tears, shifts, leaves adhesive behind or allows damage to reach the product underneath.
Professional-Grade Protection for Real-World Work
ArmorDillo products are developed for people who actually use protective film – not just people who sell it. Our films help protect valuable surfaces throughout manufacturing and fabrication, assembly and finishing, construction and remodeling, painting and restoration, handling and material movement, warehouse storage, transportation and delivery, and installation and final cleanup.
Depending on the product and application, ArmorDillo films help guard against:
- Paint and overspray
- Construction dust and debris
- Stucco, plaster and mortar
- Dirt, scuffs and scratches
- Punctures and abrasion
- Moisture and workplace messes
- Tool marks and handling damage
- Damage during manufacturing, storage and transportation
- Everyday wear during construction and production
Better protection means less cleanup, fewer rejected parts, reduced rework, fewer repairs and fewer unpleasant surprises when the film comes off.
Specialized Protection for Manufacturers
ArmorDillo works with manufacturers, fabricators, suppliers and original equipment manufacturers that need protection beyond our standard retail applications. These specialized or nonstandard applications may involve protecting finished surfaces during fabrication, assembly, handling, storage, shipping or installation.
- Metal manufacturing and fabrication
- Sheet metal, stainless steel and aluminum
- Painted, polished and coated metal surfaces
- Plastic sheets, panels and molded components
- Automotive manufacturing and automotive suppliers
- Vehicle glass, painted panels, trim and components
- Electrical equipment and electrical enclosures
- Industrial machinery and finished equipment
- Glass and window manufacturing
- Appliance and component manufacturing
- Transportation and logistics
- Packaging and finished-goods protection
ArmorDillo helps identify the appropriate combination of film construction, adhesive system, tack level and product format for the surface and process involved. We don’t assume one film can protect everything. We start with the surface, the manufacturing process and how the film needs to perform.
Patented, Jobsite-Friendly Innovations
Thickness and strength matter – but a protective film also needs to be easy to use. ArmorDillo products include patented usability features and application-specific innovations designed to reduce frustration, save labor and improve performance:
- Patented Easy Start™ non-adhesive leaders that make rolls easier to start
- Non-adhesive beginning sections that won’t immediately stick to themselves
- Properly wound rolls designed for faster, more natural application
- Bubble adhesive technology on select carpet protection films
- Water-based adhesive systems for clean, dependable performance
- Rubber-based adhesive systems for applications requiring a different type of hold
- Surface-specific adhesives selected for the material being protected
- Patented glueless transport and metal protection technology
- Cleaner, easier lift-off when the work is finished
Carpet is not glass. Glass is not metal. Metal is not plastic. That’s why ArmorDillo develops purpose-built films and adhesive systems instead of pretending one generic roll can safely protect everything.
Cleaner Removal Without the Sticky Goodbye
A protective film shouldn’t create a second cleanup job. ArmorDillo adhesive systems are engineered to hold during the intended application and release cleanly when the work is complete. Cleaner lift-off means less scraping, less adhesive residue and less time spent cleaning the surface the film was supposed to protect. For manufacturers, clean removal can also mean fewer rejected parts, less finishing labor and a better-looking product when it reaches the customer.
Apply it. Do the work. Peel it away. No glue wrestling match required.
