Recently, a 4.5 kg/㎡ areal-density soft ballistic panel (bare) independently developed by Jiangsu XINGI TECH High-Performance Fiber Products Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of XINGI TECH, passed professional testing by an authoritative institution, with multiple core performance indicators reaching the top level in the industry. This marks another milestone breakthrough in the company’s technological innovation and volume production capabilities in the high-end protective materials field.
△ Fully self-controlled across the entire process, with high-performance products benchmarked against the industry’s highest standards
The soft ballistic panel submitted for testing achieved full self-controlled production throughout the entire process, from the development of ultra-high-strength UHMWPE fiber dedicated to ballistic protection and UD fabric production to panel fabrication. To objectively verify the product’s protection performance in real-world conditions, the company commissioned the Ballistic Materials Testing Center of Zhejiang Hongqi Machinery Co., Ltd. to carry out performance tests in strict accordance with the latest national and industry standards.
△ Verified by authoritative testing, with core performance leading across the board
The testing covered two core items: Level 2 police ballistic protection performance testing and the 1.1 g simulated fragment V50 ballistic limit test. All test results far exceeded industry standard requirements:
☆ Excellent protection against standard-issue ammunition
Tested in accordance with the Level 2 standard of GA 141-2010 Police Ballistic Vests, both panels withstood six effective hits from 1951-type 7.62 mm pistol cartridges (lead core) without penetration. The maximum backface deformation was only 21 mm, far below the standard limit, giving the product industry-leading resistance to impact deformation.
☆ Top-tier fragment protection capability
Tested in accordance with GA/T 950-2019 Test Method for V50 of Ballistic Materials and Products, the sample achieved a maximum V50 ballistic limit of 752.84 m/s against a 1.1 g standard simulated fragment, placing its energy absorption capacity against high-speed fragments in the industry’s top tier.
☆☆☆ Three core advantages that redefine the standard for high-end protective materials
The 4.5 kg/㎡ soft ballistic panel introduced this time achieves an ideal balance among three core requirements — protection performance, wearing comfort, and lightweight design:
Best-in-class protection: it provides reliable protection against both standard-issue pistol ammunition and high-speed explosive fragments, with all core indicators reaching internationally leading levels.
Greatly upgraded wearing experience: the UD fabric is soft to the touch, and ballistic vests made from it conform perfectly to the contours of the human body, markedly improving the wearer’s freedom of movement and comfort during prolonged wear.
Industry benchmark for lightweight design: the product overcomes technical barriers to keep areal density at 4.5 kg/㎡ while meeting both core protection indicators — Level 2 police standard-issue ammunition protection and a 1.1 g simulated fragment V50 value. Its weight reduction is significant compared with products of the same protection level, providing key material support for reducing the burden on individual soldiers and improving tactical mobility.
As a leading enterprise in China’s high-performance fiber materials sector, XINGI TECH has always been committed to innovation-driven development. Going forward, it will continue to deepen its presence in the high-end protective materials segment and launch more high-performance, reliable products, contributing scientific and technological strength to China’s public security and national defense industries.
