DARKMATTER™ pad reduces dangerous energy transfer from ballistic and blunt force impacts. Designed to work in conjunction with existing ballistic armor, the pads provide supplemental protection from nearly all forms of impact—bullets, blunt force, vehicle collision, and more. DARKMATTER™ pads fit most ballistic carriers and work with existing armor. The pads integrate quickly and easily with existing kits—insert the pad behind the armor and go. DARKMATTER™ pads improve fitment of body-worn armor and increase comfort without adding bulk. The pads provide support inside the ballistic carrier while keeping armor securely in place, all while coming in at only 0.35” (8.89mm) thick and weighing just 1 lb. (0.454 kg). DARKMATTER™ pads are designed and manufactured in the USA. All DARKMATTER™ pads are manufactured at our VOSB-certified partner facility in upstate New York. DARKMATTER™ pads received a Gold Rating from the NTOA (National Tactical Officers Association) Member Tested and Recommended Program.
