Cuirazz Body Protection

Body Armour, commonly known as a “stab vest”, is life saving equipment requiring a duty of care in the selection thereof of protection against modern day violent threats. Cuirazz Body Protection has a holistic approach to protecting frontline personnel against violent attacks. Our philosophy is that modern body armour should provide defence to the attack threat of  knife, needle & spike, ballistic, shrapnel (including flying glass) and blunt trauma (including being hit with hard objects or being kicked).  It is clear that frontline personnel need more protection than a “stab vest” can offer.

Cuirazz uses the latest technology and materials to provide defence from physical and violent attacks. Easy to wear and lightweight and surprisingly thin, Cuirazz Body Armour provides 5 defences in a single armour, offering protection from ballistic, stab and needle or spike attacks, grenade blast fragments and blunt trauma, such as kicks or blows to the torso or attack from a blunt object.. The protective gear utilises an advanced material composite of ultra-high-tensile fibres and thermoplastic. While other soft armour materials require moisture to be kept out by waterproof covers that can be accidentally perforated, the composite of Cuirazz Vests removes the need for this, ensuring the armour properties of the material are unaffected by high humidity or wet conditions. It is clear that Cuirazz Body Protection offers substantially more protection than a “stab vest”.

Cuirazz Vests have undergone a series of qualifications and certification tests to meet specific body armour standards of police and military users. All Cuirazz Vests, including our ladies vests, are certified to the latest standards by the Home Office, which are regarded as the minimum standard for body armour (stab vests) in the UK. Cuirazz vests are manufactured in the UK in a UKAS accredited ISO 9001: 2008 manufacturing facility. Our manufacturers warranty on the life of the armour pack is 10 (Ten) years. 

Cuirazz Vests are available in a variety of covert and overt styles. Cuirazz Body Protection offers the choice between both Tabard and Zip Front style overt vests, offering a wide range of industry specific vests, such as the Cuirazz Press Vest, the Cuirazz Paramedic Armoured Vest and the Cuirazz Enforcement Vest. Our flexible UK based design and manufacturing facility enables vests to be designed or modified to suit operational requirements. The body side of the vests have a wicking spacer fabric, which acts as a heat management system to give improved wear and comfort. The anatomical design offers wide upper torso body coverage, along with close-fit, elasticised adjustable shoulder and waistbands fitted with Velcro closures.
