Overview
What is ballistic protection, and how are protection levels described?
A short reference for buyers comparing product lines and protection-level terminology before sending a detailed RFQ.
In short: Ballistic protection at TACAN spans six connected product lines — ballistic helmets, bulletproof vests, ballistic plates, ballistic shields, stab-resistant protection and ballistic accessories — built from aramid, UHMWPE, ceramic, alumina and ballistic steel. Each line is matched to a project by threat type, coverage area, weight budget and the protection-level terms stated in the buyer's tender.
Buyers typically reference NIJ 0123.00 threat and level terminology (HG for handgun threats, RF for rifle threats) when specifying ballistic requirements. NIJ 0101.07 defines performance requirements specifically for torso body armor — it does not certify helmets, plates, shields or accessories on its own. TACAN matches each product's configuration to the protection-level terms a project specifies; see Quality & Testing for how documents are matched to a confirmed order.

Quality & TestingFAQ
Questions buyers usually ask.
Is TACAN a ballistic protection manufacturer or a trading company?
TACAN Safety is a China-based protective equipment manufacturer, not a pure trading intermediary. Production is coordinated from Ningbo, Zhejiang, with product configuration, sample review and documentation handled directly for each project.
How does TACAN handle OEM and ODM requirements for ballistic protection orders?
Logo, color, fabric, size, packaging, material and accessory set can be matched by project. See the OEM/ODM process for how requirements move from request to bulk production.
What is the minimum order quantity for ballistic protection equipment?
Order quantity, packaging and shipping terms are confirmed per project once the product configuration, destination market and required documents are set. Share these details in an RFQ for a project-specific quotation.
How do I choose between ballistic plates, ballistic shields and bulletproof vests for the same threat level?
The choice usually comes down to coverage area and mobility: plates and vests protect the torso and can be worn continuously, while shields add frontal, standoff protection for entry or checkpoint scenarios. See the selection guide above to compare all six product lines side by side.
Does TACAN provide test reports and certificates for ballistic protection orders?
Representative management-system certificates and selected test-report pages are available for review. Full documents matching the confirmed model, material and protection level are provided once a quotation is underway.
Which regions does TACAN currently support for ballistic protection tenders?
TACAN communicates with buyers across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa and South America, particularly on model comparison, document preparation and customization before shipment.
What information should a ballistic protection RFQ include?
Share the product category, quantity, target standard, destination country, application, sample needs and any drawings or tender documents.
