 Press Release   26 September 2008

    Armor Designs, Inc.

    ("Armor Designs" or "the Company")

    Announces new NIJ certified Armour Plates

    Armor Designs, Inc., (AIM: ADID, ADIS), a designer and manufacturer of composite armour products targeting numerous sectors, today
announces that it has received US National Institute of Justice (NIJ) certification for two of its Level 3 armoured plates. These are
significant plate certifications that the Company has attained and positions the Company to market these high quality plates for the
protection against rifle rounds. 

    The certified plates, made from composite materials, were designed, prototyped, tested and certified in a period of less than 60 days
through the application of patented Volumetrically Controlled Manufacture (VCM) methodology, thus emphasising the utility of the patented
processes. The plates are believed to be the lightest in the market weighing less than 3.3lbs. 

    Charles Snyder, CEO, commented: "I am extremely pleased with the work of our advanced R&D team, Scorpion Works, having only been
established for a few months. The Scorpion Works team has been able to produce these outstanding products in such a short period of time
through the application of VCM technology. It certainly underscores the power of VCM and the competitive advantage VCM provides to the
Company."

    Notes to Editors
    Based in Phoenix, Arizona, Armor Designs specialises in the research, testing, development and commercialisation of composite armour
products.

    Each of the products being developed by Armor Designs, in whole or in part, is based upon a generic synthetic manufacturing process
called volumetrically controlled manufacturing ("VCM"). The VCM process was originally developed by Dr. James St. Ville and involves the
creation of a computerised model into which can be inputted the specific tolerances and design constraints of a proposed product. The model
then adjusts the composition of the material until the required properties are achieved, through 3D design optimisation. The VCM process
gives Armor Designs the potential to rapidly develop new composite armour products which might consist of various materials, such as metals,
ceramics, resins and/or fibres, which in combination might share the same or better resistance to penetration as existing armour equivalents
but which are, potentially, lighter and more versatile.

    The VCM technology is the subject of several US and international patents and patent applications, which are exclusively licensed to
Armor Designs' subsidiary, Armor Designs LLC, in the field of use of synthetic armour.
