Company continues to lead the industry with innovative, high-performance solutions for security professionals and workers in high-risk environments.
ROCHDALE, UK. March 10th, 2025 – Leading body armour supplier
Defence Composites has unveiled an expanded range of armoured and protected clothing.
Since the launch of their first stab vest in 2008, Defence Composites has been at the forefront of high-performance body armour development, providing certified protection against a wide range of threats.
Defence Composites’ latest innovation is their protective clothing, made from Kozane® Extreme, a high-performance fabric that is lightweight, breathable, and provides exceptional protection against cuts and lacerations. Designed for security professionals and workers in high-risk environments, this leading-edge clothing also offers resistance to bites and slashes, making it an essential piece of equipment for those in settings such as mental health facilities, care homes, and special educational needs environments who require additional protection.
With an expanded product line, customers now enjoy greater flexibility in choosing
body armour tailored to their specific protection needs, including defense against stab, spike, impact, and ballistic risks. To meet diverse user requirements, Defence Composites offers a variety of body armour covers, available in concealable, overt, hi-viz, and multiple color options, ensuring both functionality and versatility.
Defence Composites has become a trusted supplier for numerous UK security companies. Dean Rawson of SWL Security shares his experience: “Our company orders all of our
stab vest covers from DC. The team is fantastic, and the gear is top-notch. We’re even able to request custom designs. They’re definitely a trusted supplier.”
Founded by Craig Mills, who brings over 40 years of experience in defence and manufacturing, Defence Composites continues to lead the industry with pioneering solutions. Craig said: “I’m fortunate to work with such a skilled team at Defence Composites, which allows us to stay at the forefront of innovation in protective gear.”
Customer feedback plays a crucial role in Defence Composites’ development process. A few years ago, they partnered with UK Police Forces and HM Prison Service to conduct trials, resulting in the creation of their canine body armour, now in use by UK police forces.
Additionally, Defence Composites has unveiled a new website showcasing their complete product range. Visit
defencecomposites.co.uk to explore their full selection of cutting-edge solutions.
Defence Composites will be exhibiting at this year’s Security & Policing Event, taking place from 11-13 March. Visit them at stand B114 to discover their latest innovations.
