PSP Announces New Electronic Soldier Systems Technology for Body Armour

KELOWNA, BRITISH COLUMBIA–( EMWNews – March 28, 2008) – Pacific Safety Products Inc. (TSX VENTURE:PSP), a leader in the field of protective body armour and soldier systems equipment, announced today that the company will be demonstrating its novel Moisture Detection Liner for soft body armour vests at CANSEC 2008. In the past, moisture in body armour has been shown to degrade the ballistic performance of the material thereby potentially reducing the protection afforded to the wearer of the vest. PSP’s unique system is sewn inside the ballistic material and can detect the presence of minute traces of water in the fabric. A micro control panel only 4mm thick and 5 cm long can detect as little as 1 millilitre of water. With the ballistic material comprising as much as 70% of the value of body armour, this technology can aid the control and inspection of armour vests in the field or storage thereby preserving valuable investments in soldier or law enforcement equipment.

“We are proud to continue to develop and deliver innovative solutions that enhance the safety of our military and law enforcement personnel and reduce life cycle cost to our customers,” stated Jacques Bonaventure, Vice President Corporate Development, Pacific Safety Products Inc.

PSP will be displaying its body armour, helmet systems and electronic products at the 2008 CANSEC Exhibition, April 9-10 at the Ottawa Convention Center in Ontario, Canada. Attendees are invited to visit Pacific Safety Products booth #806 to view solutions and speak with company executives.
