About us

For the last 20 years VestGuard has been one of the leading body armour suppliers to UK and international military, government and law enforcement agencies.
In the early 1990's the company’s founder set up a manufacturing facility for body armour and began supplying local law enforcement agencies and security personnel with high quality bullet and stab resistant vests.
Over a short period of time, the company evolved and developed relationships with many UK government agencies. As the strength of the VestGuard brand continued to expand, potential for international involvement was identified and developed.
In 2003, VestGuard developed into an internationally recognised brand as high quality, British-made body armour became increasingly popular to civilian and military clients in many countries around the world.
By the time the Iraq and Afghanistan wars began, VestGuard was at the forefront of the body armour industry. Supporting many government and civilian contractors travelling to these countries, the company quickly caught the attention of a number of other clientèle and the company’s products dominated the market.

Today, VestGuard operates a team of highly efficient individuals with specialist knowledge in the industry. The VestGuard brand continues to expand and products continue to advance aesthetically, ergonomically and in their ballistic performance to weight capabilities. VestGuard invest heavily in research and development to ensure their products remain the most technologically advanced in the market.
The VestGuard name stands for quality, and protection. This is proven by VestGuard’s position in the market as the largest supplier of Body Armour worldwide compared to other manufacturers.
Dedication to producing high quality products has resulted in VestGuard UK being awarded International Business of the Year, and the Counter Terror Award for innovation in Personal Protective equipment.
