Description

AEGIS FABRIC: THE "SECOND SKIN" PROTECTION
AEGIS fabric utilizes our unique, patented multilayer (3D) weaving technology to deliver both maximum protection and exceptional flexibility. Its strength lies in its ability to absorb impacts with equal efficiency, whether laid flat or folded to conform to complex geometries.

While GASHA is our structural shield, AEGIS is our champion of ergonomics. Designed to be imperceptible to the wearer, it redefines the standards of personal protection by offering unrivaled textile fluidity without compromising mechanical resistance.

AEGIS can be woven in two versions with technical fibers :

  • 100% aramid (TEIJIN TWARON)
  • 100% UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene)
=> A PATENTED INNOVATION Tibeka Protection has succeeded in combining three qualities rarely found in a single fabric:
  • extrem flexibility;
  • extrem formability (adapts to any shape);
  • high resistance to impacts.
=> ABSOLUTE FLEXIBILITY The secret of AEGIS lies in its "liberated" weaving architecture. Unlike traditional ballistic protections, which are often stiff or boardy, AEGIS behaves like a true garment fabric.
  • Draping effect: It falls perfectly and follows the body's movements with zero resistance.
  • No restriction: Ideal for joint areas (elbows, knees, shoulders) or close-fitting garments.
=> COMFORT AND DISCRETION BUT HIGH-TENACITY PERFORMANCE AEGIS allows for the design of protection that is invisible under clothing. It eliminates the "shell" effect, offering the user total freedom of action, even during rapid or complex maneuvers. It offers excellent resistance to
  • impact
  • perforation
  • abrasion
  • tears
  • cuts
  • breathable.
=> TARGET APPLICATIONS
  • Covert protection: Vests worn under shirts, VIP security clothing.
  • Workwear (PPE): Reinforcement zones at joints, cut-resistant trousers, protective gloves.
  • Tactical gear: Comfort linings and flexible parts of intervention equipment.
  • Sport protection
  • Composite Reinforcement Application:
    • Protective helmets
    • Radomes
    • Partitions and walls
    • Vehicle armor/shielding

GASHA aramid or UHMWPE

GASHA aramid or UHMWPE

==== GASHA FABRIC: HIGH-PERFORMANCE, FLEXIBLE, AND TAILORED PROTECTION ==== GASHA fabric utilizes a unique, patented multilayer (3D) weaving technology to deliver both maximum protection and exceptional flexibility. Its strength lies in its ability to absorb impacts with equal efficiency, whether laid flat or folded to conform to complex geometries. GASHA can be woven in two versions with technical fibers :
  • 100% aramid (TEIJIN TWARON)
  • 100% UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene)
=> A PATENTED INNOVATION Tibeka Protection has succeeded in combining three qualities rarely found in a single fabric:
  • high flexibility;
  • great formability (adapts to any shape);
  • extrem resistance to impacts.
=> ADAPTS SHAPES WITHOUT COMPROMISE Most protective materials lose effectiveness or structural integrity when bent. GASHA fabric, however, adapts without constraint. It perfectly contours to curves and angles without creasing, retaining 100% of its protective capabilities without creating weak points in the deformed areas. GASHA can be used in différent positions :
  • Flat
  • Molded
  • Deformed/bent
  • Draped
=> KEY STRENGTHS
  • Conforms to shapes without creasing.
  • Highly flexible in all directions (horizontal and vertical).
  • Zero performance loss, even when deformed.
  • High resistance to impacts and punctures.
  • 3D weaving optimized for composite reinforcements (prevents delamination).
  • 2 versions : 100% aramid and 100% UHMWPE
=> DENSE, PROTECTIVE, AND DURABLE
  • With its high density (930 g/m² - Aramid version), GASHA acts as a true barrier against impacts.
  • Easy to process: It molds and drapes easily to adapt to your specific product.
  • Shape retention: Once formed, it maintains its shape over time.
  • Versatile: It performs equally well whether used alone (soft layers) or hardened (integrated into composite materials).
=> APPLICATIONS & MARKETS
  • Dry Application (Soft Armor):
    • Men’s and women’s ballistic vests (body armor)
    • Stab and spike protection (bladed weapons)
  • Composite Reinforcement Application:
    • Protective helmets
    • Radomes
    • Partitions and walls
    • Vehicle armor/shielding
