STM Website Architecture v2
v2 — rebuilt 9/22/26 from the client's "STM Sitemap_Sep 18" document. Six nav sections stand; the taxonomy underneath changed: Survivability is now the parent of four Low Observables / RF sub-pages, Materials reorganizes into four families with Elastomers added and the comparison tool kept on the hub, spec pages move to Resources, Fiber to Finished Part moves from Technology to the Solutions hub, and Part of IPS is deleted. Items tagged [Q#] are still open. Count is 45 if the spec pages reconcile to the doc's ×6 (nine data sheets are published today).
Inputs: client sitemap doc (Sep 18) · Sep 8 and Sep 15 check-ins · LO Master Brief v1 · Materials Copy v2 · 27-file site audit · Positioning Strategy · StoryBrand v1. Slugs are domain-agnostic pending the new STM domain (Kaymen/Jeff).
Hub Pages
Section entry points — orient, route & rank
Detail Pages
Problem, material, industry, proof & conversion pages
Utility Pages
Legal & supplier-facing — necessary, de-emphasized
Status Badges
The order is the engineer's order, ratified 8/21 and unchanged by the Sep 18 doc: what's failing (Solutions) → what solves it (Materials) → who it's for (Industries) → why it works (Technology) → prove it (Resources) → who you're talking to (About STM). What changed is inside each section. Supply chain keeps its fast lane — Launchpad.

Homepage
Home D (Sep 8, revised Sep 15; order agreed at the Oct 6 check-in): hero (the promo film runs as the hero background — no separate video band) → clickable trust bar → the problems we solve (five problems, each routed to its solution page, with images) → how we build the answer (the stack, scroll-driven) → Industries we serve (four, Aerospace & Defense featured first; links to each industry page and the Industries hub) → Survivability (platform card with market tabs on top: A&D on the airframe with hover zones, plus Medical, Architectural and Telecom panels) → what STM enables (the rest of the solution set) → technologies & materials (EnCap™ + Material Characterization Testing, three families + build your own) → proof → FAQ → three CTA lanes (Sample Kit, Talk to an Expert, Launchpad). Materials table moved off the homepage to the Materials hub.
/Key Decisions
Solutions Hub
The engineering-problem front door, now six doors plus the Survivability family. One card per child page plus links into the industry doors. Carries the approach-level frame — engineered-in vs. bolt-on — once, at the top, and hosts the Fiber to Finished Part concept as a section (moved here from Technology; it has no page of its own).
/solutions/10 pages beneath · § Fiber to Finished Part as a hub section
→ EMI / RFI Shielding
→ Flexible Sensors & Circuits
→ Architectural Shielding
→ ESD / Static Control
→ Custom Engineered Material Solutions
Survivability
Section landing for the low-observable family. The client's call (Sep 18): "Survivability lands better with potential customers and allows for future expansion into new LO solutions." The parent carries the stack, the how-we-work sequence (a high-level conversation first; STM's NDA before specifics when the work calls for one; engineers once the opportunity is defined) and the buyer doors once; the four sub-pages carry the platform-specific story. Zero numbers · the F-35 in line art is the only aircraft shown · Talk to an Expert only.
/solutions/survivability/4 sub-pages
→ LO Vehicles Solutions
→ LO Warfighter Solutions
→ RF Reflection & Signal Management
Low Observables — Aerospace Solutions
The page wireframed Sep 15 under the LO label — seams, fasteners, seals and the airframe zones on an F-35 plan view. Re-parented under Survivability with the crumb Solutions → Survivability → Low Observables — Aerospace; its CTA and NDA wording brought in line with the Oct 6 check-in.
/solutions/survivability/low-observables-aerospace/LO Vehicles Solutions
Ground-vehicle signature management: the same material stack on hulls, hatches and panels. Content from Brian, Mike and Dan; same clearance tier as Aerospace.
/solutions/survivability/low-observables-vehicles/LO Warfighter Solutions
Soldier-borne and portable signature management — shelters, covers, garments. Content pending; register per the Brief.
/solutions/survivability/low-observables-warfighter/RF Reflection & Signal Management
Promoted from the Phase 2 list into the Survivability family. Reflection, absorption and signal control at the material level.
/solutions/survivability/rf-reflection-signal-management/EMI / RFI Shielding
Gaskets, bags, pouches, enclosures and cases — conformable conductive fabric with closures that carry current across the seam. Absorbs the old EMI Gaskets and Shielded Enclosures pages.
/solutions/emi-rfi-shielding/Flexible Sensors & Circuits
Pressure mapping, wearable sensing and biosensors on K252S. Client-specified CTA on this page: "Not finding the flexible conductivity solution you're looking for? Let's talk."
/solutions/flexible-sensors-circuits/Architectural Shielding
Breathable shielding for SCIFs, data centers, labs and MRI suites — high attenuation with no vapor barrier behind the wall. The former SwiftShield™ system page folds in here; the brand name is retired from copy.
/solutions/architectural-shielding/ESD / Static Control
Static dissipation and grounding built into covers, garments and enclosures. Renamed from ESD Protection per the Sep 18 doc.
/solutions/esd-static-control/Custom Engineered Material Solutions
The "build your own" promise as a page: modify an existing construction — coating, base fabric, weight, width — or co-develop a new one from the application in. Destination for every no-match state and every "Not seeing it?" band.
/solutions/custom-engineered-materials/Materials Hub
"Conductive fabrics engineered to spec." The Material Product Comparison Tool stays on the hub (client, Sep 18): the filtered data table, the compare-up-to-three drawer and the four family tiles, wireframed Sep 15. Every value is a published data-sheet value. Spec pages live under Resources; each family links to its tech sheets.
/materials/Elastomers
Fastener fillers, tapes and gap fillers — the elastomer systems, neat or filled, engineered around the fabric. New family per the Sep 18 doc; no published data sheet yet, so no comparison-table row until one exists.
/materials/elastomers/Knits
Lightweight and breathable. K087S, K158S — and Spandex (K252S) folds in here per the doc. Links to each tech sheet.
/materials/knits/Wovens
Strong and tight. W077S, W077NS, W823NS — and Hook & Loop (SMS-0102/0103) folds in here per the doc. Links to each tech sheet.
/materials/wovens/Non-wovens
Stable, with the highest shielding numbers. NPB20NS; fiber mats and veils are supplied from this family. Links to each tech sheet.
/materials/non-wovens/Industries Hub
Four audience doors plus the applications × material-family matrix as a real, indexable table. Every door runs the same engineer-first order: problem → why STM → outcomes → materials → story tile → FAQ.
/industries/Aerospace & Defense
Jargon-fluent, zero education. Black/silver guardian register. Weight vs. shielding, qualification, Berry, traceability. Platform naming per the cleared list.
/industries/aerospace-defense/Medical & Wearables
Light clinical register — "small fish welcome; these programs close in weeks." Drift, stretch and skin contact [Q13], consistency, co-development.
/industries/medical-wearables/Telecom & Industrial
Steel register. Signal flooding and interference at facility scale → wovens and non-wovens, installability, large-format widths.
/industries/telecom-industrial/Architectural & Secure Facilities
Architectural calm register for SCIF integrators, FSOs and architects. Foil = vapor barrier = mold = reopened walls → breathable shielding → accreditation confidence.
/industries/architectural-secure-facilities/Our Technology Hub
Hub page per the Sep 18 doc, anchored by EnCap™. Two pages beneath it — EnCap™ and Material Characterization Testing — each applying to every material family. Fiber to Finished Part has moved to the Solutions hub. The plating chemistry is never published — the micrographs, data sheets and independent curves are the proof.
/technology/EnCap™ Technology
The bond: silver, or nickel over silver, encapsulating every fiber. Micrographs at 100× and 1,000×, the "no shadow side" contrast, and why the numbers hold. Applies to every material family.
/technology/encap/Material Characterization Testing
Renamed from Testing & Characterization Lab per the doc. In-house electrical, mechanical, RF and environmental characterization to ASTM methods; pre-qualification support; the independent 2–40 GHz curves. Applies to every material family.
/technology/material-characterization-testing/Resources Hub
Replaces /downloads/. Now the home of the spec pages (moved from Materials per the doc), the case study, FAQs and Compliance. HTML pages are canonical; PDFs are secondary and re-hosted with correct metadata; every download event-tracked.
/resources/Spec page — K087S

/resources/spec-sheets/conductive-loop-ag/Case Study — Architectural Shielding
The one commercial case study: method, configurations, and the mold time-lapse. Publishable results, the confidential stamp and the retired brand name all pending.
/resources/case-studies/architectural-shielding/FAQs
The FAQ hub, aggregating every per-page block. FAQPage schema. Glossary can start here.
/resources/faqs/Compliance, Certifications & Awards
Every trust-bar item resolves to an anchor on this page: AS9100D & ISO 9001:2015, ITAR, Berry, Made in the USA; DFARS and CMMC once confirmed; the customer-approved recognition asset.
/resources/compliance-certifications/About STM — Our Story
Hub page with Our Story as the section landing (client, Sep 18). Since 1955, the co-development record, the people. No corporate-family references — Part of IPS is deleted.
/about/Careers
ADP Workforce Now hand-off.
/careers/Request the Engineering Sample Kit
The flagship offer: a conversation first, then STM ships the kit — scoped to the application, with the data sheets and shielding curves that matter; no shipping form (Oct 6). Placement (top-right CTA vs. buried) and kit inventory / reorder are open with Brian (Sep 15).
/sample-kit/Launchpad
The RFQ fast lane, named Launchpad (decided Sep 15) — skip the line (Oct 6). For the buyer who knows what they want and is ready to buy: spec, drawing or RFQ straight to sales — no screening call, no samples, no waiting on an engineer. Filter selections from the Materials hub pass straight through. Shortens the discussion cycle, never the lead time. LO inquiries never enter this path.
/rfq/Talk to an Expert (Contact)
The primary CTA. "Tell us the mission." It starts with a high-level conversation — the 50,000-foot view; STM's business-development team screens every request first. If the work calls for an NDA, STM puts its NDA in place before anything specific is discussed; engineers join once the opportunity is defined. An STM expert responds within 48 hours. Every form carries the ARXIS legal consent copy; phone number in the top bar open with Brian.
/contact/For Procurement & Supply Chain
The ninety-second verification lane: certs, Berry statement, part-number index, quality and OTD record, T&C of Sale, direct Launchpad link.
/procurement/Supplier Resources
For STM's vendors: T&C of Purchase, Purchasing Quality Notes, supplier survey expectations.
/suppliers/Privacy Policy
ARXIS legal template (Aug 24 reset); EU / UK / Canada variants pending legal.
/privacy-policy/Terms of Use
Website terms — distinct from the sales Terms & Conditions, which live on Compliance / Procurement.
/terms-of-use/Cookie Policy
Cookie and consent policy matched to the GA4 stack; cookie banner per the marketing roadmap.
/cookie-policy/Header Navigation
Six sections, left to right, unchanged since 8/21. Talk to an Expert is the primary button (Oct 6); Request Sample Kit sits beside it pending Brian's call on placement. Launchpad is the third CTA; there is no NDA button.

Whole-domain 301 from the old domain once the new one lands (Vaishali, 9/15). The rankings lost in migration are largely the wrong ones (fabric-store traffic); the map preserves the rest.
Fiber to Finished Part placement. The Sep 18 doc says it moves to the Solutions hub, then nests a "dropdown section, no hub page" note under Architectural Shielding. Built as a Solutions-hub section — confirm.
Spec pages ×6 vs. nine published data sheets. Which sheets are retired or merged? Affects Resources count (48 → 45) and the Materials table roster.
Our Technology: hub page or dropdown only? Doc heading says hub; nested note says dropdown. Built as a hub.
Insights / Technical Articles is not in the Sep 18 doc. Moved to Phase 2 — confirm it isn't meant to stay.
LO Vehicles · LO Warfighter · RF Reflection content. Source material from Brian, Mike and Dan; same PUBLIC clearance tier as Aerospace.
Sample Kit CTA placement · top-bar phone number. Open with Brian. Kit inventory / reorder tracked as its own project.
Platform & customer naming · award rights · CMMC/DFARS. Rick + written customer OK. Holds copy on the Survivability pages, the trust bars and Compliance. Settled Oct 6: the F-35 is the aircraft we show; the F-22 may be named in copy, never shown.
Curve republication · PD-1055 publishable numbers · video clearance. Holds: spec pages · case study · the film.
None of these blocks the next wireframes. The Materials spreadsheet (Copy v2 §11) is the one true build blocker for the comparison tool.
Homepage — Home D (Sep 8, revised Sep 15). Design starts on its approval.
Low Observables — Aerospace (Sep 15). Re-parents under Survivability.
Materials hub (Sep 15) — comparison tool, four families, downloads, Launchpad.
Solutions hub — six doors + the Survivability family + the Fiber to Finished Part section. Next.
Survivability landing + LO Vehicles / LO Warfighter / RF Reflection — once Q34 content lands.
Templates — family page (Knits pilot), spec page (K158S pilot), industry door (Medical & Wearables pilot), solution page (EMI / RFI Shielding pilot).
Conversion set — Launchpad → contact → sample kit → procurement, Edge mapping in parallel.
Technology, Resources, About, utilities · redirect map + PDF re-hosting as the pre-launch checklist.
Phase 1 = 48 launch-ready pages (45 if the spec roster reconciles to six), against roughly 10 indexable today. RF Reflection was promoted from this list into the Survivability family by the Sep 18 doc; Insights moves here from Resources.
