CLEARWATER FL--(Marketwired - Dec 16, 2013) -  BlastGard International, Inc. (OTCQB: BLGA) ("BlastGard" or the "Company") wholly-owned subsidiary HighCom Security, Inc., a leading provider of personal protective equipment, is pleased to announce its new Civilian Armor System (CAS) product line. HighCom's Civilian Armor Insert is a level IIIA ballistic resistant insert designed to withstand multiple shot impacts from handgun fire. Our level IIIA lightweight CAS inserts are tested according to the National Institute of Justice and are designed and manufactured in the USA. Typically used by civilians, our CAS inserts can be placed into existing backpacks, laptop bags, iPad cases, luggage, or other cases to provide an economical and lightweight multi-hit protection option for civilian use at work, school, or during other normal everyday activities.

Michael J. Gordon, CEO of BlastGard, said, "We are really excited to be introducing this new product line. HighCom has distributed close to 1,000,000 pieces of ballistic armor over the past decade for the military and law enforcement. We have all seen the violence in our schools and workplaces. This civilian line is in response to the alarming increase in public shootings. The video on our website clearly shows its effectiveness. As the father of 2 college students, I wanted a product that my children could have with them daily by simply inserting a CAS lightweight ballistic panel into their backpack. I also use one for my laptop case. We are passionate about saving lives and these panels now provide the general public with a level of protection they currently don't have."
