Polyethylene UD
UHMW-PE icon
Valofort is at the forefront of ballistic protection innovation, offering Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) Uni-Directional (UD) fabrics as a cornerstone of our advanced raw materials portfolio. These meticulously engineered fabrics are designed to meet the diverse needs of ballistic protection applications, ranging from personal body armor to vehicle and infrastructure shielding. UHMW-PE fibers are renowned for their extraordinary strength, being 15 times stronger than steel on an equal-weight basis, which ensures unparalleled durability and toughness. Additionally, these fibers exhibit exceptional visco-elastic properties, enabling them to absorb and dissipate energy effectively, a critical factor in high-performance ballistic solutions.Compared to traditional aramid fibers, UHMW-PE offers a specific strength that is 40% greater, making it a superior choice for armor applications. Its remarkable resistance to chemicals, water, and ultraviolet (UV) light enhances its reliability in harsh environments, ensuring long-term performance under extreme conditions. A unique advantage of UHMW-PE is its low dielectric constant, which renders it virtually transparent to radar. This property expands its utility beyond traditional ballistic protection, enabling applications in radar-transparent armor for battlefield scenarios, where stealth and protection are paramount.Valofort’s UD fabrics are produced using a patented system that integrates man-made fibers into a Uni-Directional fiber-resin matrix, eliminating the stress junctions commonly found in woven fabrics. This innovative design enhances energy absorption and ballistic efficiency, surpassing the performance of traditional woven materials. The result is a lightweight, flexible, and highly effective solution for both soft and hard armor applications. Globally recognized for their quality and reliability, Valofort’s UD fabrics are widely adopted across the ballistic protection industry, trusted by military, law enforcement, and security professionals to deliver life-saving performance in the most demanding environments. Our commitment to innovation ensures that these materials continue to set the standard for advanced ballistic protection worldwide.

Valofort Enhanced Fiber Technology (VEFT)
Valofort’s solutions are trusted globally, delivering life-saving protection across these diverse applications.
Valofort’s Enhanced Fiber Technology (VEFT) represents a pinnacle of innovation in ballistic protection, utilizing a unique homogenized tension control technology paired with specially formulated polyolefin resins to significantly enhance the strength and ballistic performance of Polyethylene Uni-Directional (PE-UD) fabrics. This proprietary system optimizes the molecular alignment of fibers, ensuring uniform tension distribution, which amplifies the material’s ability to absorb and dissipate ballistic energy. The result is a lightweight, high-performance material that sets new industry benchmarks for both strength and protection across a wide range of applications. VEFT’s meticulous engineering process reflects Valofort’s commitment to precision, delivering materials that excel in demanding environments while maintaining flexibility and durability.The advanced design of VEFT enables superior ballistic resistance, achieving higher V50 ratings (the velocity at which a projectile has a 50% chance of penetration) and lower Backface Signature (BFS), which reduces trauma to the wearer or protected asset. This makes VEFT-based PE-UD fabrics ideal for applications requiring maximum protection with minimal weight, such as personal armor, vehicle shielding, and critical infrastructure protection. By focusing on every detail of the production process, from resin formulation to fiber alignment, VEFT ensures consistent performance under extreme conditions, offering reliability in high-threat scenarios. This technology not only enhances safety but also provides operational advantages, such as improved mobility for users and fuel efficiency for armored vehicles.ApplicationsValofort’s ballistic protection solutions, powered by VEFT and PE-UD fabrics, are engineered for versatility and are deployed across a broad spectrum of critical applications. These include:

Revolutionary UHMWPE UD with Polyolefin Water-Resistant Resin
Valofort cutting-edge Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) Unidirectional (UD) fabric, engineered with an advanced polyolefin water-resistant resin. This innovative composite redefines durability in extreme wet environments, maintaining peak performance even after submersion in water for over 7 days. Ideal for defense, marine, and industrial applications, it delivers unmatched reliability where moisture is the enemy.Traditional ballistic materials falter under prolonged water exposure—absorbing moisture, swelling, and losing tensile strength. Our UHMWPE UD defies this. The proprietary polyolefin resin forms a hydrophobic barrier, preventing water ingress while preserving the material's inherent lightweight, high-strength properties. Independent tests confirm: after 168+ hours of full immersion, it retains the same of dry-state ballistic performance, flexural modulus, and impact resistance. No delamination, no degradation—just consistent excellence.
