The biggest challenge is to select technical fabrics that will provide protection
Personal protection is a priority in many industries, and bulletproof vests can mean the difference between life and death in high-risk situations. For the end user, choosing innovative materials can optimize comfort and ensure greater protection against projectile impact.
Regulations: Key to effective protection
To ensure protection, bulletproof vests must comply with standards such as NIJ (National Institute of Justice) in the US or EN 1063 and VPAM in Europe. These standards define resistance levels and ensure that the vests are effective in high-risk scenarios, regulating their use in a number of international markets.
Innovative fabrics that save lives
The success of a bulletproof vest lies not only in its internal armor, but also in the fabric from which it is made. Base fabrics such as Reebag, Tech Fabrics, Reebag with recycled yarn, Huracán and Everest Resist provide:
- High resistance to wear and tear, which guarantees a longer service life.
- Breathability and comfort for prolonged use without compromising mobility.
- Durability in extreme conditions, ideal for confrontations and high-risk situations.
- Sustainability, with options such as Reebag with recycled yarns that protect the environment without sacrificing protection.
Safety in every detail
A good lining protects the internal components of the vest and enhances the user experience. Fabrics such as Huracán and Everest Resist provide superior resistance and adaptability, while Reebag and Tech Fabrics enhance overall performance of bulletproof vests. Choosing the right fabric can be the deciding factor in protection against potentially lethal impacts.
