Applications
At Baltex, we specialise in developing advanced fabric solutions for those who put their lives on the line every day. Our innovative textile technologies provide vital protection for military personnel, law enforcement officers, and others working in hazardous environments.
Baltex supplies high-performance fabrics engineered specifically for body armour applications. Our proprietary weaving and coating processes create ultra-tough, lightweight materials that deliver superior ballistic and stab resistance.
Our cut-resistant glove fabrics combine extraordinary strength with a surprising level of dexterity and tactile sensitivity. Utilising advanced fibre technologies like aramids, UHMWPE, and liquid crystal polymers, Baltex hand protection textiles allow maximum mobility without sacrificing cut, puncture, and abrasion defence.
Military and PPE boots and shoes face incredibly punishing conditions. That's why Baltex develops specialised fabrics formulated to withstand rugged terrain, harsh weather, and heavy use while providing lasting comfort and protection against hazards like cuts, burns, and chemicals.
