ARMOUR-KNITTM
ARMOUR-KNITTM represents an important addition to our range of specialised KEVLAR protective clothing.
Developed originally for rapid intervention duties,
ARMOUR-KNITTM garments are suitable for use in all
operations where there is a significant risk of injury from cuts and slashes from broken glass, edged weapons
and other similar hazards.

Based on the latest fibre technology from DuPont,
ARMOUR-KNITTM clothing offers a unique combination
of protection, flexibility and comfort, in a range of colours to suit the operating environment. A comprehensive
range of garments is available in modular form, providing head to toe protection if required. In addition to
offering protection against cuts and other mechanical risks all products are inherently flame-retardant.
