Concealable Hard Plate Bulletproof Vest with PP Webbing

Design of this concealable hard plate bulletproof vest

The idea behind the carrier is that lighter is better. It keeps extras to a minimum and puts the weight into function. One size fits most body types, with adjustable shoulder straps and elastic side straps that keep a snug fit while the wearer moves.

• Holds 10x12 hard plates or one large plate
• Plate pockets lined with pack cloth to resist wear
• Built from Mil-Spec materials for hard daily use
• PP (polypropylene) webbing for light, strong strap points
• Unisex fit with front or side closure

Plates and protection level

Armour in this class usually pairs aramid or UHMWPE soft panels with ceramic or steel plate inserts. The protection level is typically NIJ IIIA-IV equivalent protection level (model-dependent), which means the rating depends on the plate you choose, not the carrier alone. We confirm the plate type and rating for your order in writing before production.

For how these levels are defined, see the NIJ body armor standards from the US Department of Justice. We do not claim a test certificate unless it has been confirmed for that exact item, and our certifications and compliance documents page sets out how we handle this.

Ordering for police and army tenders

Tenders for body armour tend to name the threat level, the plate size and the cover colour. Buyers usually ask us for a sample carrier first so they can check the fit with their own plates. We can quote EXW, FOB, CFR or CIF, and we ship to Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and many other markets.
