Army Police Vest with Hydration Bag
The Army Police Vest with Hydration Bag combines a bulletproof vest with a built-in water pouch, so officers on long patrols can drink without taking off their kit. The ballistic panels use Dupont Kevlar or UHMWPE, the vest weighs about 3 kg, and we build it in China for police, army and tender buyers.
Why add hydration to a ballistic vest
Heat is a real risk for anyone who wears body armour in a hot place. A bladder on the back, usually holding 1-3 litres, lets the wearer sip through a drink tube and keep both hands free. That helps at checkpoints, on foot patrols and on long cordons, where no one can step away to find water.
Build and protection
- Bulletproof material: Dupont Kevlar (an aramid fibre) or UHMWPE, chosen per order
- Bulletproof area: 0.3-0.45 m2, which can be customised
- Outer cover: polyester, nylon or Cordura, in any colour
- Size: one size fits most, with custom sizes available
- OEM service: design changes and your logo on the vest
Vests of this type are typically built to a level equal to NIJ IIIA. That is a guide, not a firm rating for this model, so we confirm the level and the test papers for your batch at enquiry. You can read how the levels are defined in the NIJ body armor standards from the US Department of Justice.
Choosing the Army Police Vest with Hydration Bag for a tender
Tender papers often fix the protection level, the panel area and the cover colour. We recommend sending that clause with your enquiry. We then match the ballistic material, confirm the bladder size and agree the logo layout before production starts.
Orders ship as single units or in full container loads, and seaworthy export crating is available. We export from China to Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and many other markets, with the invoice, packing list and certificate of origin. See our certifications and compliance documents page for how test papers are handled.
