Fedur

What Fedur does

Fedur, S.A. is a privately held Spanish defense equipment manufacturer founded in 1960 and headquartered in Cuarte de Huerva, Zaragoza. The company designs and manufactures personal and vehicular protective equipment for military forces, law enforcement agencies, and security services, with a product portfolio spanning aramid combat helmets, bulletproof vests, personal ballistic plates (including a patented flexible plate), shields, vehicle armor kits, and mass control equipment. Fedur was the first company to manufacture aramid helmets in Spain and holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001, and PECAL (AQAP) 2110 certifications, the last being a NATO quality assurance standard that qualifies the firm for allied defense procurement. The company operates an in-house impact testing laboratory equipped for NIJ and HOSDB-CAST standardized ballistic and stab-resistance testing, supporting both internal R&D and raw material quality control.

The firm's core technology centers on materials engineering and manufacturing process control, with proprietary capability in flexible ballistic plate construction that addresses a known performance gap in conventional rigid-plate systems. Technical specifications and pricing are intentionally withheld from public channels for security reasons, and all commercial engagement is routed through direct contact. Fedur serves two primary verticals: military defense (combat protection, including vehicle platforms) and law enforcement (operational protection and mass control), and has accumulated over 60 years of continuous manufacturing experience across its product lines.

The business model is a direct-to-government, sales-led model with custom-engineered solutions built to customer-specific ballistic and environmental specifications. There is no public pricing, no third-party distribution, and no digital commerce layer. The company appears to be founder/management-owned (Fernando Ferrer Hernando is the legal representative), with no institutional investors, no disclosed funding rounds, no subsidiaries, and no observed M&A activity. Given the stated 1-10 employee headcount and the absence of disclosed revenue or contract values, the firm operates as a niche specialist within the Spanish and potentially NATO-aligned defense supply chain.
