FAKE ARMADILLO & PPE COPIES
There are at numerous Chinese companies and a few other internationally that offer copy-Armadillo Shields. Of
those we tested all failed British Standards BS 7971 testing here in the United Kingdom, especially those from the
Far East with impressive test Certificates, some labelled Armadillo and showing BS 7971 compliance.
Can you afford to have your officers seriously injured when copy products fail in a riot…?
You are wasting your money buying fake-Armadillo and fake BS 7971 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as well as
placing your officers at serious risk of injury.
In any agency procurement exercise, it is therefore essential to conduct proper Due Diligence; seeking references
from long duration users’ home and overseas, to ensure manufacturers and suppliers claims are true.
There are at least 6 Far-Eastern companies and 4 other internationally that now offer copy-Armadillo Shields. Of those we tested all failed British Standards BS 7971 testing here in the United Kingdom. Can you afford to have your officers seriously injured when copy products fail in a riot…? You are wasting your money buying fake-Armadillo and fake BS 7971 kit. If you insist that a manufacturer proves BS 7971 Approval then you are safe to purchase.
Beware of fake BS 7971 claims
