The RESPONDER LBV-ST4

After trialing the RESPONDER a number of Australia's largest hospital security departments and two of the largest security companies in Australia chose the RESPONDER stab vest over other competitors.

The LBV-ST4 is our latest design vest and includes the reflective Security badges which are velcro backed. This vest was designed specifically for a major Australian hospitals security team, over other main manufacturers vest.

Our stab protection vest utilise a patent pending manufacturing technology which makes our stab-protection garments innovative and unique throughout the world providing stab and slash protection in one product,

This vest has a flap over the zipper and has a hook and loop panel for affixing your velcro backed badges to. Vest are made to order with a slight +- minus adjustment range on the waist and shoulders. With plenty of molle webbing you wont be left short for attaching your own molle style pouches.

As with our other vests, the vest is characterised by a very high wearing comfort. We achieve this by the low weight of approx. 1.4 kg (level 1) and this with a protected area of over 0.25to 0.45 m². In comparison, other vests only offer a covered area of 0.1 – 0.2 m². Furthermore, the wearing comfort is significantly increased by the high flexibility of the stab-proof material. This means that the vest can be worn permanently without any restrictions – regardless of whether you are seated or highly active.

DESCRIPTION 

The outer fabric of the vest is very durable. This makes it particularly suited for law enforcement and also ideal for outdoor use.

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 tactical stab-proof vest weigh only approx. 1.4kg,(level 1) for example. The protective layer is made of a high-strength aramid fabric to which a special plastic is inseparably applied. The combination of high strength fibres and the energy absorbing plastic create a material of which its specific properties even exceed those of stainless steel plates. 

The weight is approx. 4.5 times lower than that of a comparably thick stainless steel plate. We have taken the armadillo as a model to ensure flexibility and breath-ability. 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.

Our stab protection vest utilise a patent pending manufacturing technology which makes our stab-protection garments innovative and unique throughout the world providing stab and slash protection in one product.
