BlastGard signs Five Year Alliance Agreement with Nordisk Aviation Products, Inc.

October 26, 2005 -- Clearwater, Fl and Cape Canaveral, FL -- BlastGard International, Inc. (OTCBB: BLGA), a creator of blast mitigation products and services, has entered into a five-year alliance agreement with Nordisk Aviation Products. In accordance with the agreement, the companies will combine BlastGard technology with Nordisk's services to develop superior blast mitigating products for the air cargo and unit loading devices (ULD) market. The alliance will focus on devising solutions for newly manufactured ULDs as well as upgrading the safety profile of ULD units that are currently in the field. Nordisk Aviation Products, headquartered in Holmestrand Norway, is a company that specializes in supplying air cargo equipment to the commercial, integrator and cargo airlines of the world. The company is the leading manufacturer of ULDs (containers and pallets), operating globally with sales offices and regional headquarters in Hong Kong, Copenhagen, and Cape Canaveral, Florida.

James Gordon, CEO of BlastGard, said of the new alliance, "We are really excited to be working with Nordisk, the world's largest manufacturer of ULD containers, to enhance the safety of air travel worldwide. We believe that by employing our revolutionary BlastWrap® technology, we will be able to assemble a low cost, highly effective, blast mitigating solution for Nordisk's ULD containers that could vastly improve the chances of an aircraft's survival in the event of a midair explosion, such as the one that occurred in 1988 over Lockerbie Scotland."

BlastGard recently announced the signing of its first two significant orders featuring the utilization of BlastWrap® technology with existing applications. In June, the Company received a $735,000 order from the Washington Metropolitan Authority. Last month, the Company was awarded a contract from the Naval Supply Systems Command. Both deals use the Company's BlastWrap® technology in blast mitigating trash receptacles.
