Citterio launches Black230
which is a new black patented prepreg ballistic finishing fabric – solvent free – suitable to easily finish UHMWPE based rigid structures (as inserts, panels, shields, helmets, inserts) drastically reducing finishing time and providing effective adhesion to many types of UHMWPE UDs and paints.
Black230 is innovative, lighter than polyurethane and provides also ballistic properties, so there is no parasitic weight on the solution which results in being lighter and with a higher protection performance.

Major BAM designs a winning ultra-comfort solution made of JB007, JB008 and STG24
a hybrid solution based on a combination of recently launched Citterio products JB007, JB008 and STG24 has proved to be successful on the market thanks to its extreme low areal density, high flexibility and performance consistency (Lev IIIA , KR1/SP1)
June 2020
Citterio launches JB007 and JB008 made of ENERGYA Ultra Copoly Aramid Fiber
JB007 is the best in class antistab/spike product without compromising 9 mm V50; 30% lighter when compared to traditional aramid antistab/spike products
Just a few layers of the JB007 boost the performance of the solution to achieve extremely low areal densities.
JB008 is the best in class Multi Purpose Product it combines antistab/spike properties with good 44 Magnum performance.
JB007 and JB008 are supplied in rolls, width 120 / 160 cm

Citterio launches Saturn 230 - Milipol Paris
Top Performing Multi purpose Twaron based product developed to meet the growing demand of protection against bullets and stab/spike.
Thanks to the unique performance of Saturn 230 is possible to design MTP packages having a low areal density and high flexibility
April 2016
Among other innovative high performance products, F.lli Citterio S.p.A. has introduced Vector 220 (VTR 220) specially created for highest STAB RESISTANCE.
Thanks to VTR220 outstanding resistance against stab penetration, a limited number of layers of the material is required to meet the highest stab energy levels providing in this way a light and comfortable package.
VTR220 is supplied in rolls up to 160 cm (63”) wide
March 2016
F.lli Citterio S.p.A. launches
Gemini 800 (GMN 800) a new product
uniquely designed for BALLISTIC PROTECTION PACKAGES.
GMN800, regards to its high resistance to bullet penetration, meets the most severe requests in terms of ballistic resistance with a lower areal density compared to other materials. Moreover, GMN800 is very flexible and the layers of the ballistic package do not need to be quilted granting in this way a high flexibility and wearability of the body armor. GMN800 is supplied in rolls up to 160 cm (63") wide.
