IMPACT 2 – Ballistic and Stab-Resistant Vest - Size L

DTF Protection IMPACT 2 – Ballistic and Stab-Resistant Vest | Size L The First Certified Civilian Ballistic Vest on the EU Market The DTF Protection IMPACT 2 is the first fully certified ballistic, fragment-resistant, and stab-resistant vest legally available on the civilian market in the European Union. Developed by DTF Protection — a brand born from over 15 years of experience designing personal protection systems for NATO armed forces and police units across Europe — the IMPACT 2 brings professional-grade protection to civilian users for the first time. The vest is engineered to protect against the three most statistically relevant threats faced in real-world scenarios: 9mm pistol ammunition, high-velocity grenade and mortar fragments, and knife attacks. It is built around a 100% aramid (Kevlar-class) ballistic insert and has been independently tested and certified by AITEX — an accredited ballistic testing laboratory in Spain — under internationally recognised standards including NIJ 0101.04 and NIJ 0115.00. Size L — Coverage and Weight Size L is designed for a waist circumference of 92–99 cm. At this size, the vest provides a front ballistic protection area of 1,521 cm² and a rear protection area of 1,661 cm², covering the vital organs with full front-and-back soft armour coverage. The total weight of the vest in size L is 2.15 kg, with the ballistic inserts alone weighing 1.75 kg — making it genuinely wearable throughout the day without fatigue. Comfort — Outlast® Thermal Regulation The inner lining of the carrier is made with Outlast® thermal regulation fabric — a material originally developed by NASA for astronaut suits — which actively manages body heat and moisture, significantly improving comfort during extended wear. The vest has no metal components and is designed to be worn discreetly under clothing, making it suitable for VIP protection, security professionals, high-risk civilian environments, and everyday personal protection. Modular Protection System The IMPACT 2 is a modular system. Protection coverage can be extended with supplementary accessories from DTF Protection: the NUTCRACKER groin protector and the CORESET ballistic belt, allowing the user to build a comprehensive protection solution tailored to their specific threat level and operational requirements. Hermetically Sealed Ballistic Inserts Each ballistic insert is hermetically sealed at the factory, guaranteeing that the end user receives a product in its original, uncompromised condition. The sealed packaging also allows size verification before opening — the insert can be placed into the carrier through the foil to check fit. Once the hermetic seal is broken, the ballistic insert cannot be returned. CE Certification and Legal Status The IMPACT 2 is CE certified under EU PPE Regulation 2016/425 — Category III (the highest category for personal protective equipment), assessed and confirmed by the notified body AITEX (NB 0161). CE certificate number: 24/07868/00/0161. It is legally classified as a civilian product under EU Regulation 2021/821 (dual-use category 1A005.a) and requires no licence or permit for purchase or use anywhere in the European Union.
