A backpack insert allows you to add ballistic protection to any backpack, bag or briefcase. It offers discretion, privacy and peace of mind in this era of school shootings and mass shooters. These inserts can protect you at work, school or in public transportation and coffee shops. They are not bulky or obvious, and are perfect for those who want to protect themselves without needing to purchase a bulletproof vest.
Unlike armored backpacks, which are designed with the protective material sewn into the lining, these inserts can be added to any bag for increased security and safety. They are also TSA approved, allowing you to take them on planes and travel across states without the worry of confiscation. They are a great option for parents who want to send their children to school or on errands with the confidence that they will be safe from gun threats.
The inserts are standalone rated, meaning they don’t need any assistance from the backpack to stop bullets. They are also much thinner and lighter than a traditional backpack with sewn-in armor, and some even have a built-in trauma pad to reduce the impact on the wearer. They are sealed in a waterproof bag and many versions can also act as a life preserver, making them highly functional and practical.
The plates are made from a durable material called Dyneema, which is used by law enforcement for their body armor and is known for its strength-to-weight ratio. This material makes the inserts extremely light and durable, while still offering NIJ level IIIA protection. This is enough to stop most pistol bullets but not rifle bullets, which would require a harder armor like steel or ceramic.
