Gibson & Barnes (G&B) is a manufacturer and supplier of jackets, jumpsuits, uniforms, electronic communication equipment and helmets to the Aviation, EMS, Police, Fire and Military communities. 

Recently G&B has developed a sophisticated LQDC System (Liquid Quick Disconnect) that is ideally suited to US Army requirements for Soldier Cooling in mobile operations. The LQDC (FLO-LOK™) is in full scale production supporting a long term US Army contract. FLO-LOK™ connectors are assembled from Injection Molded, CNC Machined and Rubber Compounded parts. Each connector is calibrated and tested to a strict protocol and data is electronically recorded for quality audit purposes. 

G&B is also currently developing a next generation LCG (Liquid Cooling Garment) for the US Military. Adding a flexible heat exchanger to a garment is a simple concept, however, creating a robust, efficient cooling garment that meets strict military performance and endurance specifications is challenging and complicated. The development contract has potential to produce several innovative ideas (IP) that may require patent protection.
