The London-listed company said the order was part of the US Army's Next Generation Integrated Head Protection System (NG IHPS) helmet programme.

It said the contract came under the NG IHPS IDIQ framework agreement initially awarded in September 2021.

That framework supports the US Army's ongoing efforts to enhance soldier protection through advanced helmet systems.

“We continue to see good levels of demand for Team Wendy's head protection systems from the US DOD demonstrating our leading ballistic shell and traumatic brain injury mitigation technology and long-term contract positions,” said chief executive officer Jos Sclater.

“We look forward to continuing our support to the U.S. Military with this vital, lifesaving, protection equipment.”

At 0802 GMT, shares in Avon Technologies were up 2.19% at 1,494p.
