 BGF makes Kevlar fabric for rigid and soft body armor protective applications.
The type of Kevlar fiber used for protective applications is Kevlar 29. Kevlar fabric for
protective applications is used primarily by the military and law enforcement agencies for
bullet resistant vests and helmets. The military has found that helmets reinforced with Kevlar
offer 25-40% better fragmentation resistance than comparable steel helmets while providing
better fit and greater comfort. Bullet resistant vests using Kevlar cloth have saved thousands
of police officers and military personnel in the line of duty. Kevlar fabric also offers
excellent thermal protection in items such as gloves and boots since it can withstand extreme
heat and is inherently flame resistant.
