As with our other vests, the vest is characterised by a very high wearing comfort. We achieve this by the low weight of approx.1.5kg (level 1) and this with a protected area of over 0.25to 0.45 m². In comparison, other vests only offer a covered area of 0.1 – 0.2 m². Furthermore, the wearing comfort is significantly increased by the high flexibility of the stab-proof material. This means that the vest can be worn permanently without any restrictions – regardless of whether you are seated or highly active.

DESCRIPTION

The outer fabric of the vest is made of a very durable open-mesh polyester. This makes it particularly breathable and also ideal for outdoor use

The technology used to make our stab protection vests and other stab-proof garments is innovative and unique throughout the world. After many years of intensive research, we have succeeded in manufacturing a textile composite that is safe, light and flexible at the same time. Our tactical stab-proof vest weigh only approx. 1.5kg,(level 1) for example. The protective layer is made of a high-strength aramid fabric to which a special plastic is inseparably applied. The combination of high strength fibres and the energy absorbing plastic create a material of which its specific properties even exceed those of stainless steel plates. 

The weight is approx. 4.5 times lower than that of a comparably thick stainless steel plate. We have taken the armadillo as a model to ensure flexibility and breath-ability. Just like this armoured mammal, we make use of an overlapping scaly structure. However, our scaly structure differs from that of other suppliers in that it is not possible to push it apart. This allows us to achieve a high degree of safety in combination with maximum flexibility.  

Our stab protection vest utilise a patent pending manufacturing technology which makes our stab-protection garments innovative and unique throughout the world providing stab and slash protection in one product,

Level 3 protection is not recommended for general security related duties where the vest is worn for longer periods of time. Please choose carefully as we do not exchange if you purchase the incorrect protection level. Exchange panels can be supplied at extra cost, please contact us for pricing & turnaround times. level 3 offers maximum stab and blunt force force protection. The average weight of a level 3 vest is approximately 4 to 5 kg depending on the sizing and configuration of the vest chosen, compared to 1.4 to 1.7kg for a level 1 vest.
