Utilising a material to work in delicated riot control situations. The products had to have maximum function with minimum restriction to the officers wearing it but remain within strict performance requirements.
The project required extensive field testing and simulation of scenarios for internationally-based officers.

This included simulated riots and reviewing the officers’ training for these situations.

 

These solutions informed protection for national sports teams representing Great Britain at international level, including the Parcour team, downhill ski team, mountain bike team and bobsled team, and premiered at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.
