Safety right down to the tiniest detail

Safe, soft, strong – narrow textiles for protective clothing and defence

Elasticated, hook and loop capable tapes for thigh pockets, storage and adjustment systems on protective vests, tapes, cords and nets for complex transport bags, elasticated tapes or nets for insertable protectors and much, much more: technical narrow textiles are an indispensable element of uniforms and luggage systems for civilian and military security forces. Fixing, protecting, tensioning, adjusting, holding, bundling – these are just some of the functions that the textile components need to fulfil here. Reliable and permanent.

Safe – versatile protection functions

These clothing and luggage items must protect people and whatever they are carrying against a wide range of risks. Heat, cold and moisture protection are just as much a part of this as are protection against disease vectors (vector protection), protection against ultra-violet radiation and camouflage protection. And: They need to be absolutely silent.

Soft – maximum comfort for the wearer

Anyone involved in ensuring the safety and security of others must be able to fully concentrate on their tasks. This is why uniforms and carrier systems must offer the greatest degree of comfort for the wearer. Nothing is allowed to be scratchy or too tight. And the equipment has to be lightweight. Every gram less counts. On top this, everything needs to be securely fastened but still within easy reach. In an emergency, fractions of a second can make the difference. Elasticated narrow textiles offer the best possible solutions here.

Strong – great durability

Only rugged and resilient narrow textiles are suitable for defence tasks: the mechanical stress on the textiles during operations is huge. And depending on the terrain, the textiles can be exposed to ultra-violet radiation, heat or wet conditions. The equipment has to be reliably resilient to all of this and for a long period of time.

For protective vests and more: full-surface hook-and-loop elastic tape

Our extra-wide, fully hook & loop and air-permeable elastic band is extremely hard-wearing and durable. It is therefore ideal for use as a side panel of vests for the defense sector and other outdoor applications. Thanks to its special width, the hook and loop tape fits seamlessly around the body. And compared to conventional elastic bands, it is considerably lighter. This means that the vests are comfortable to wear and can be quickly and securely customized.
