UK-based BCB International to present an inflatable body armour system
at DSA 2014
Visitors to the DSA 2014 Defence Services Asia Exhibition in Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia, (14-17 April 2014) will be able to see for themselves an inflatable
body armour system which is proving extremely popular with Navies and
Coastguards worldwide.
The system
provides a high degree of ballistic protection without impeding the
wearer’s comfort and mobility. The life jacket is located under
the body armour which means that it will inflate even when the body
armour has been impacted by several rounds.
UK-based
BCB International is a major exporter of cutting-edge technologies
that would not be out of place in a James Bond movie. Their inflatable
body armour system which automatically inflates within seconds of
being immersed in water is attracting a high level of interest.
BCB International’s Sales Manager, Ben Simmons, said: “We
have seen in recent months a surge in the number of orders for inflatable
body armour systems to be worn by navy and coastguard personnel
throughout the world. The system provides a high degree of ballistic
protection without impeding the wearer’s comfort and mobility.
The life jacket is located under the body armour which means that
it will inflate even when the body armour has been impacted by several
rounds.
“Navy and coastguard service personnel are out there protecting
our coastal waters, but they also need protecting themselves. We
are extremely proud that more navies and coastguards are turning
to our inflatable body armour system to help them get on with their
important work.”
