In turbulent times like these, it is particularly important for many people to take measures to protect their personal safety. Stab protection vests offer effective protection for life and limb. In the past, however, these have often been heavy and uncomfortable. This is not the case with the innovative stab protection vests from Armadillo Tex GmbH based in Remscheid. Our stab protection under vests are

particularly safe due to high-strength aramid fabric with patented composite structure,

extremely light at only 1.3 kilograms,

are exceptionally flexible thanks to their scaly structure and

breathable and comfortable due to the special mesh structure of the outer fabric.

Patent pending technology
The technology used to make our stab protection vests and other stab-proof garments is innovative and unique throughout the world. After many years of intensive research, we have succeeded in manufacturing a textile composite that is safe, light and flexible at the same time. Our under vest weighs only approx. 1.3 kg, for example. The protective layer is made of a high-strength aramid fabric to which a special plastic is inseparably applied. The high strength fibres and the energy absorbing plastic mean that the specific properties of this composite even exceed those of stainless steel plates. The weight is approx. 4.5 times lower than for a comparably thick stainless steel plate. We have taken the armadillo as a model to ensure flexibility and breathability. Just like this armoured mammal, we make use of an overlapping scaly structure. However, our scaly structure differs from that of other suppliers in that it is not possible to push it apart. This allows us to achieve a high degree of safety in combination with maximum flexibility.
Die Technik, mit der unsere Stichschutzwesten und andere stichfeste Kleidungsstücke hergestellt werden, ist innovativ und weltweit einzigartig. Nach jahrelanger, intensiver Forschung ist es uns gelungen, ein Textilkomposit herzustellen, das zugleich sicher, leicht und flexibel ist. Unsere Unterziehweste hat beispielsweise nur ein Gewicht von ca. 1,3 kg. Die schützende Schicht besteht aus einem hoch festen Aramid-Gewebe, auf das untrennbar ein Spezialkunststoff aufgebracht ist. Durch die hoch festen Fasern und den energieabsorbierenden Kunststoff liegen die spezifischen Eigenschaften dieses Komposits sogar über denen von Edelstahlplatten.
Dabei ist das Gewicht rund 4,5 Mal geringer als bei einer vergleichbar dicken Edelstahlplatte. Um Flexibilität und Atmungsaktivität zu gewährleisten, haben wir uns das Gürteltier zum Vorbild genommen. Wie bei diesem gepanzerten Säugetier nutzen wir eine sich überlappende Schuppenstruktur. Anders als bei anderen Anbietern sind unsere Schuppen allerdings so angeordnet, dass es nicht möglich ist sie, auseinander zu schieben. Dadurch erreichen wir ein hohes Maß an Sicherheit in Kombination mit höchster Flexibilität.

Our under vests are ideal for wearing under a shirt inconspicuously. The self-adjusting shape of the vests makes them ideal for both men and women. The patent-pending process gives our stab protection vests an extremely light, breathable and highly flexible design. They are also stab resistant to knives, blades and probes. In addition, our stab protection vests feature a very large protective area. This provides the best possible protection especially for the lower abdominal area, which cannot be covered by rigid vests. Genuine all-round protection for the upper body and all vital organs.
The breathable and lightweight outer fabric made of resistant polyamide fibres is capable of optimally absorbing sweat and moisture and dries quickly. The outer fabric can be washed in the washing machine to ensure flawless and hygienic cleaning.

Various uses
There are many different possible uses for our stab-resistant textiles. Whether private or government security forces, whether police, law enforcement or security – they all require effective self-protection equipment against knives, probes and other stabbing weapons. Our products can be used in many areas thanks to their many advantages.
Business people requiring protection and their bodyguards can wear our inconspicuous, breathable vests under a suit without the worry of sweating. Inspectors and bouncers do not feel any heavy load on their shoulders even after hours of use thanks to the low weight of our stab protection vests. Rescue workers and paramedics can react flexibly to ongoing situations and threats with the movable composite scales, which offer premium protection.

Worldwide cooperation
It has been more than ten years now since the search for a new type of stab protection vest began at the famous Donghua University in China. The primary objective was of course to provide sufficient stab protection. But it also had to be light, comfortable, pleasant to wear, flexible and customisable. The breakthrough finally came in 2018. The developers and founders of High Armor Ltd. were looking for reliable and competent sales partners in Europe…
…and found the right partners in the two mechanical engineers for plastics and textile technology, Dr. Nadine Jungbecker and Dr. Philip Jungbecker. The revolutionary project of their former colleague convinced them both. Since then, the Remscheid-based Armadillo Tex GmbH, which was set up specifically for this purpose, has been responsible for the distribution of the latest generation of stab protection vests in Germany and throughout Europe. In addition to pure distribution, Armadillo Tex GmbH has also undertaken the task of fulfilling the specific requirements of the European market and further developing our products together with our customers.

Future developments
We will not stop researching for you. This is because we want to offer our customers an increasingly improved, broader and safer product range. In the meantime, we have commenced work on the fourth generation of our impenetrable textiles together with our development partner High Armor. This will allow us to either further increase safety or reduce weight while maintaining the same level of safety.
We do not set ourselves any boundaries or restrictions. Stab-proof gloves? Makes sense. What about trousers? Why not. And complete suits? Interesting idea. With zipper? Absolutely. In high-visibility colours? Perfect. Our stab-proof under vest can be easily customised for larger quantities to meet customer requirements. This allows us to provide you with a personalised design for your stab vest. We would also be happy to expand our range to include stab-proof jackets and other forms of clothing.
We are not only constantly improving our original idea, we are also always on the lookout for new application possibilities, new variants and further challenges. This is why we are always happy to receive suggestions and requests from our customers. You can see some of our latest developments here.
