ADDS STAB PROTECTION
The MT-PROTM panel brings a new level of protection and performance by adding stab protection. This panel provides true multi-threat protection while maintaining the high standard of comfort our customers have come to expect. Our MT-PROTM meets the rigorous standards of NIJ .04 Level IIIA, but we went even further by testing the MT-PRO’sTM bullet stopping capabilities against eight different types of ammunition! The MT-PROTM supplies excellent performance against close to the edge shots.
By integrating Dyneema® fabrics from DSM with our proven TitanSkinTM anti-stab technology, we were able to develop a panel that provides both superior ballistic performance and stab protection.
The MT-PROTM is one of the few products that stops the HOSDB P1 Blade at 15 Joules (<20 mm) and a hypodermic needle at 5 Joules, according to VPAM KDIW 2004.

IMPROVED SOFT BALLISTIC PANEL SHAPES
EnGarde®, in collaboration with several independent contractors, has produced exciting advances in the design of the ballistic panels used in body armor. Since the beginning, EnGarde® body armor has maintained the same shape for the ballistic panels. This classic shape has provided customers across the world with a superior level of protection in a lightweight and comfortable body armor panel. Recently we decided to take a fresh look at the shape of our soft armor panels. We gathered input and recommendations from clients and a special team of engineers on the development of an even better design. In addition to our own engineers, EnGarde® brought in ballistic panel design experts, engineers who worked with the FBI and US law enforcement on soft armor panel shapes. This collaboration produced a groundbreaking new panel design, one that is ideal for both concealable and tactical body armor applications.
DESIGN IMPROVEMENTS WERE MADE IN A NUMBER OF AREAS:
- Reshaped front panel allows for getting into an active firing position faster and easier
- Longer back panel allows for increased coverage of the lower back area
- Ergonomically improved panel shape results in a more tailored fit and increased maneuverability
- New design works equally well in both concealed and tactical body armor applications
The updated ballistic panel shape has replaced our classic ballistic panel shape for the majority of EnGarde® body armor models. Previous customers can be assured that we will maintain a stock of the classic carriers for those with legacy products.
