Ballistic Panel Materials:

Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE): Manufactured by “Dyneema”, USA. This material is recognised for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, offering outstanding ballistic protection.

Pointex AP (Kevlar): Known for its ability to absorb impact energy and minimise the risk of injury from bullets and fragments.

Cordura: Ensures material integrity and moisture resistance, extending the product’s lifespan.

Our ballistic neck protectors are made from top-quality materials - “Dyneema” from the USA and synthetic Kevlar “Pointex AP” from Italy.

Intended Use:

• Designed for: The ballistic prone neck protector is designed for military personnel operating in combat conditions without restricting head movement, especially for vehicles drivers, artillerymen, and snipers in a prone position.
• Task types: This protective gear shields the neck from fragments and bullets which is crucial when maintaining a low profile during combat, such as firing from cover or performing tasks in a prone position.
• Why it’s needed: Compared to traditional standing-collar gorgets, the neck protector offers better air flow and greater mobility while protecting vital arteries and airways.
• Not suitable for: This type of protection may be less effective for soldiers engaged in active standing manoeuvres requiring coverage of the upper neck area, including the throat and chin.
• Benefits: The gorget provides an optimal balance between necessary protection and comfort allowing soldiers to focus fully on their missions.

Our committment is to protect the lives of our soldiers. We rigorously test all our products for quality compliance to ensure 100% confidence in everything we manufacture.
