The bulletproof vest refers to a set of protective coverings worn by individuals to protect the torso against bullets, knives, and bombs. Based on proof, vests absorb the impact and reduce or completely stop the penetration of the attack, and any fragments from various explosions.

The main types of bulletproof vests include soft vests and hard vests. Soft vests are made using strong woven fibers that can be woven into vests.

The different bulletproof vest materials include kevlar, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, and graphene. The end-users of the bulletproof vests are military and law enforcement.
The growth in military expenditure of developed and emerging countries is significantly contributing to the growth of the bulletproof vest market. It is mainly due to an increase in military expenditure, which has further propelled the large-scale procurement of bulletproof vests for the armed forces.
