Specialized protective textiles for
law enforcement and military

Intro Polizei Militär Schoeller Protection Textiles develops fabrics tailored specifically to the requirements of public authorities, together with the user. They are based on high-quality polyamide fabrics with stretch, antistatic, a high degree of rip resistance and low noise emission. With regard to the required performance, we can configure the functions on a modular basis, allowing us to add the desired protection with our innovative technologies.
For example, we offer flame protection with the aid of pyroshell™ technology, wind and rain protection with our c_change™ membrane, ideal moisture management thanks to our 3XDRY® technology, maximum abrasion resistance with our ceraspace™ technology and, most recently, for special units, a suppressed thermal signature – integrated into the specific local camouflage print – with our camoshield™ technology. Combinations of different technologies can also be implemented without difficulty.
Our 7-layer clothing system – from underwear to cold-protection layers – was developed specifically for the military and security sector. With the objective of consistently meeting the challenging demands of frequent physical activity under potentially extreme climatic conditions, extensive testing was performed at the EMPA St. Gallen focused on garment functionality. This testing has guaranteed a perfectly-coordinated clothing system no matter what the weather conditions, with optimum moisture transport and the necessary protection, including from flames and extreme heat.
Details Motorcycle From renowned motor bike manufacturers to proven motorcycle wear brands or professional motorcyclists including motorcycle police, they can all rely on the innovative and extremely durable textiles from the Protection Textiles segment. The protective fabrics schoeller®-dynatec and schoeller®-keprotec are characterized by an extremely high degree of abrasion resistance. For motorcycle wear, in addition to conventional testing, they are also subjected to a special impact abrasion test in the fall simulator. schoeller®-reflex also ensures additional, full-surface protection in poor visibility.
Motorcycle Technologies In combination with our innovative technologies such as c_change™ (for optimum and breathable protection from wind and weather), Nanosphere® (for the greatest possible level of dirt repellence) or ceraspace™ (for extreme abrasion and heat protection in the event of a fall) we continuously consult with our customers to develop ideal solutions for their areas of application.
Intro Multinorm Schoeller Protection Textiles develops textiles to protect people. The fabrics offer added value in the area of comfort – combined with protective properties adapted to the sphere of use. In every development, sustainability is an integral component.
The modular application of our technologies makes it possible to treat almost every fabric to meet different protection standards. The multinorm fabrics produced by Schoeller can be designed in a targeted and tailor-made manner for required standards or for several standards at the same time.
Our collection comprises products which comply with the following standards, or a combination of same:

  • EN ISO 20471 (High visibility)
  • EN 1149-5 (Anti-static)
  • EN ISO 11611 (Workwear for use in welding and allied processes)
  • EN ISO 11612 (Workwear for protection against heat and flame)
  • IEC 61482-1-2 (Workwear for protection against electric arcs)
  • EN 13034 (Protection against liquid chemicals)
  • EN 343 (Rain protection)
Intro Circular Polyester/cotton textiles are the most commonly used fabrics in workwear. However, these fabrics are difficult to recycle and reuse. In order to preserve resources and generate less waste in the workwear market, Schoeller has collaborated with the Dutch company, DutchSpirit to develop an alternative to conventional polyester/cotton blend fabrics.
With our new Inspire Collection made of 100% polyester – but with the feel of conventional polyester/cotton fabrics – we have created a product with a longer service life, 60% of which originates from recycled PET bottles.

The fact that there is no cotton content reduces the cultivation area and the water required in production. At the end of their life cycle, Inspire fabrics can be completely recycled and processed into PET granulate and staple fibers.
The innovative Inspire Collection consists of a series of different knitted fabrics, woven fabrics and soft-shells, available in EN ISO 20471-compliant high-visibility colors with chemical protection in accordance with EN 13034, or as windproof and waterproof versions in accordance with EN 343 with the recyclable Sympatex membrane.

The entire manufacturing and recycling process is avouched by Schoeller and DutchSpirit together with partner operations in Europe.
