UK-based body armor specialist PPSS Group has launched its new Stab Resistant Anti-Riot Suit. The suit is designed for professionals dealing with prison riots, public disorder, mass searches, and other serious disturbances.
The suit is designed to offer incredible levels of protection from blunt force trauma, edged weapons, and hypodermic needles to dramatically reduce the risk of physical injuries sustained by frontline professionals. The types of weapons used in these conflicts include knives or improvised man-made edged weapons, pool cues, shanks made from broken mirrors, glass or ceramic tiles, razor blades, sharpened bed or table frame legs, timber, socks filled with snooker balls, broken bottles, hypodermic needles and spikes, fire extinguishers and rocks or bricks.

Robert Kaiser, CEO of PPSS Group, said, "For me to say my firm's new Stab Resistant Anti-Riot Suit is definitely the appropriate type of safety equipment I felt like I needed to have unquestionable physical evidence in place to back up my claim.
"We decided to produce a product demo video, which assures our clients and customers around the world that our equipment will reliably protect you from the most realistic threats and risks you will face.
"Our rather powerful video has been produced to offer the wearer real peace of mind. You can trust its performance on focus entirely on the task on hand."

PPSS Group says its new Stab Resistant Anti-Riot Suit offers unlimited shelf life, saying there is no biological, chemical, or physical evidence even suggesting that the protective raw materials being used will degrade over a 20-year period. This is of financial benefit to government agencies, as commonly used safety equipment (particularly Kevlar) would require replacing on a regular basis.
