Shield Technologies Corp. is a textile manufacturer based in Eagan, Minnesota, focusing on protective covers under the Envelop brand. The Envelop material originated in a U.S. military SBIR effort to replace vinyl used on Navy ships, and since 2004 the company has designed more than a thousand cover designs and delivered over 100,000 Envelop covers to military, commercial, and consumer customers worldwide. The material is a patented, multilayer fabric featuring a weatherproof exterior shell, a breathable waterproof membrane, a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor, and wicking layers, with optional impact-resistant and insulating components. The Envelop fabric is designed to address environmental factors that degrade equipment and readiness, providing UV protection, temperature stabilization within about 11% of ambient, and significant reductions in sand and grit intrusion, with a reported return on investment up to 40:1 and reduced total ownership costs; the material is provided exclusively by Shield Technologies. In 2022, the company expanded its offerings with the launch of a compressed air leak detection service.
