Mehler Protection Contracts to Supply Ballistic Vests to Swedish Armed Forces
FULDA, GERMANY (10 October 2022)
Mehler Protection, formerly known as three distinct entities (Mehler Vario System, Mehler Engineered Defence), has been awarded a contract to continue supplying its high-performance ballistic protective vests to the armed forces of Sweden, the company today announced.
The important contract—also announced by the Swedish Defence Procurement Agency “Försvarets Materielverk” (FMV) on its website—calls for Mehler Systems to increase the quantities of ballistic protective vests it delivers.
Prior to the awarding of the new contract, Mehler Protection had outfitted Sweden’s military with several thousand of the protective systems.
The FMV indicated it awarded the procurement contract to replenish and expand its armed forces’ current inventory of body armour. According to the FMV, high worldwide demand for body protection is outstripping most vest makers’ ability to keep pace.
The FMV was understandably pleased that Mehler Systems—a globally active manufacturer of protection and carrying systems for police, military, and special forces—could meet the agency’s requirements in terms not only of delivery timelines but also with regard to product quality and performance, said Thomas Homberg, CEO of Mehler Systems, formerly known as Mehler Vario System.
