Protective foams
Extreme sports are becoming ever more popular. However, while these sports may get the adrenalin pumping, they also expose people to a higher risk of serious injury.
As a result, advanced body armour is now widely used across a variety of activities to allow extreme sports enthusiasts to get the "buzz" they seek, while still having the peace of mind that they are protected, as much as is possible, from injuring themselves.

Precision engineering
As the recognised leader in engineering-biased foam solutions, our expertise and processing capabilities truly to come to the fore in protective foams, where quality materials, precision manufacturing and technical expertise are vital to ensure a guaranteed performance time and time again.
With an established reputation in the field of protective foam conversion specifically developed for body armour applications, our products provide:
- A superior level of shock and impact absorption
- Continued performance, even following repeated impact
- Fire retardancy and self-extinguishing characteristics (particularly relevant in motorcycle applications).
Fit for purpose
We also understand that regardless of the protection provided by body armour, few people will wear it if seriously restricts movement or is uncomfortable.
Produced in high-grade PVC Nitrile, our wide range of protective foam solutions combines superior performance with supreme softness, comfort and fit.
Working closely with leading raw material suppliers, our technical and engineering experts have developed protective foam products that offer excellent impact protection, combined with outstanding fit and softness.
Breathable, soft, comfortable and lightweight, our protective foams are designed to go relatively unnoticed by the wearer through maintaining a pleasant body temperature, while also enabling complete freedom to move. This allows users to benefit from a high level of protection against injury without impeding their movement or enjoyment.
