Ukrainian manufacturer of passive fire protection products Kovlar Group LLC (TM Ammokote) reported an attempt to resume a discrediting information campaign against the company and emphasized its readiness to defend its business reputation in the legal field.

"On February 18, 2026, we received a journalist's request, the content of which, in our opinion, indicates an attempt to repeat the discrediting campaign.

Kovlar Group recalled that in August 2024, the company had already faced a large-scale information attack. At that time, according to the company, it chose the legal route of protection and appealed to the court, the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine, the National Police, the Ministry of Justice, and financial monitoring authorities. “Based on the results of the inspections, we received official confirmation that the company and its management operate in accordance with Ukrainian law, are not subject to sanctions, and have no restrictions on their economic activities,” the statement said.

The company emphasized that Ammokote products are manufactured in accordance with current regulations, and that the technical and regulatory documentation is valid and complies with all regulatory requirements. Kovlar Group also states that it is operating as usual and fulfilling its obligations to partners and customers.
