Anti Riot Armour

Anti Riot Armour covers the layered blunt-impact protection worn by public order and riot control units, covering torso, shoulders, upper and lower arms, groin, thighs and shins, together with shields, visored helmets and gloves as a complete set or in sections.

Riot armour is engineered against a different threat from ballistic armour. It spreads and absorbs blunt force from thrown objects, blows and crowd pressure rather than stopping projectiles, which makes articulation as important as coverage: an officer who cannot run, bend or get back up in the suit will not wear it correctly. Sizing and adjustment range are therefore part of the specification, and heat build-up matters in hot climates, where a suit that cannot be worn for a full deployment is no protection at all.

Riot control equipment is procured almost entirely through tendering by police and paramilitary services, prison and correctional services, defence ministries, civil defence authorities, municipal and provincial security forces, and public order and security sector programmes financed by bilateral and international funds. Our submission answers the specification point by point and attaches impact protection and material specifications, test documentation where applicable, size schedules, make and origin declarations, warranty terms, end-user documentation where required and pre-shipment inspection.

Send us your specification, whether you need full sets or sections, your size distribution and quantity, and we will prepare an offer.
