BUILT TO LAST
IN ANY ENVIRONMENTMade with heavy-duty 1000D NILIT® Cordura® in fluorescent orange and polycotton twill in Lime Green respectively, the SALUS is built for long-term performance, no matter how abrasive the task at hand is.
ARMOUR OVERVIEW
With the varying needs and different roles within security services, law enforcement and among military users, a one-size-fits-all solution to armour is inadequate. To alleviate this, we offer multiple armour layups built around unique design objectives for differing operational roles.
Our diverse layup options allow you to choose your ideal balance between price, weight, thickness, and protection to match your wear profile and threat mitigation requirements.

PROTECTION TO THE CORE
Our soft armour inserts have an integrated pocket sewn into the cover, designed to accept our proprietary CARNA™ SA anti-trauma inserts and provide enhanced spine and sternum protection.
In the event a bullet strikes the sternum or the spine area of the vest, the insert will prevent critical injuries, such as rib or sternum fractures, alongside severe numbness from damaged vertebrae.
Constructed out of a consolidated layup of ultra-thin polypropylene fibers in a hardened matrix, the 2 mm thin insert doesn't restrict movement, and provides exceptionally efficient energy dispersal without the risk of fracturing or breaking during impact.
HIGH-IMPACT MATERIAL COMPARISON
A comparison between anti-trauma material candidates relative to CARNA™ SA.
Lower areal density (AD) and plastic deformation is better.
VALUES ARE INDICATIVE OF PERFORMANCE, AND REAL-WORLD PERFORMANCE MAY VARY DEPENDING ON THE THREAT AND ARMOUR.
STAY SAFE FROM EVERY KIND OF THREAT
Constructed out of highly fluorescent materials and finished with two rows of 50 mm weather-resistant and UV-stabilised retroreflective ORALITE® microprism tape.
The joint carrier conforms with ISO 20471:2013 as a class 2 garment, which makes it a suitable choice when patrolling high-risk areas during the day, at dusk and full-on night-time.
When combined with an ISO 20471:2013 compliant shirt and pants, the entire package is easily upgraded to a class 3 garment, making it suitable to wear in proximity to high-speed machinery while staying visible to drivers or crane operators.
The front and back feature VELCRO® space for designations, nametags or task-specific insignia.
MAINTAIN CONNECTIVITY AND STAY COORDINATED
The carrier features an ergonomic pouch to carry radio equipment with space for a tall or external antenna alongside external wiring for earpieces through cutouts in each corner.
Please refer to the third-party compatibility guidelines for pouch sizing information.
MINIMUM WEIGHT, MAXIMUM PROTECTION
While minimising its weight and maintaining its flexibility and protective profile, our proprietary OC² (Overt Carrier Cut) still manages to provide up to 10% more coverage than competing offerings in its regular body profile and up to 23% more coverage in the tall body profile.
KEEP YOUR COOL FOR ALL-DAY WEAR
Featuring an internal liner based on Heathcoat's SPACETEC® volumetric mesh, the vest maintains breathability while promoting airflow and naturally regulating air distribution.
With embedded COOLMAX® fibers and ingrained silver ions, the liner draws moisture away from the body while also preventing the buildup of odour-causing bacteria.
In addition to keeping you cool and comfortable, SPACETEC® also provides excellent pressure distribution, eliminating possible hotspots and uncomfortable pinching zones while having remarkable compression recovery. This, in turn, yields excellent additional shock absorption, acting as an integrated trauma pad, minimising the effects of potential impacts.
INDUSTRY-LEADING WEAR RESISTANCE
We use a unique cover material made of lightweight, abrasion-resistant polyamide face fabric coated with a durable water-repellent. Our internal liner is TPU-based and features UV-blocking pigment to protect the ballistic materials from photooxidation caused by the sun's UV radiation, ensuring consistent performance throughout the insert's lifespan, no matter the environment.
Our two-stage sealing process ensures that every insert is safe from hydrolytic degradation from water, vapour, or general moisture. We accomplish this by pre-sealing the edges in custom-made moulds for consistency, sealing potential leaks from material bending and creasing before finishing the edges using an ultrasonic welding process to fuse the cover materials together.
DESIGNED IN EUROPE, MADE IN EUROPE
The SALUS™ carrier is designed and manufactured by Anorak Hellas, a Greek family-owned manufacturer with over 40 years of experience manufacturing high-quality textile products.
Material-wise, it features genuine VELCRO® manufactured in Spain, a high-performance shell in the form of NILIT® Cordura®, for the orange variant or polycotton twill made in Finland, all topped off with SPACETEC® lining materials manufactured in the United Kingdom, all sewn together with high-quality thread made in Italy.
