ARMORVENT, manufacturer of a body armor ventilation solution for law enforcement, military, and corrections personnel, has entered into a strategic partnership with Point Blank Enterprises, a leader in the development, manufacturing, and distribution of high performance body armor. Point Blank will be ARMORVENT's exclusive OEM integrator and master distributor of ARMORVENT systems to the U.S. commercial and law enforcement markets. This partnership is designed to give ARMORVENT and Point Blank the capability to offer law enforcement and corrections personnel an aftermarket solution and seamless integrated approach to improve the wearability and overall comfort of body armor.

ARMORVENT was created to answer the industry need for a product that makes it an easier decision to wear body armor every day. ARMORVENT is fueled solely by the body's natural cooling mechanisms, and uses scientifically proven EVAP Technology to accelerate sweat evaporation and naturally ventilate body heat while providing padding and improved load distribution.
