MINIMIZE THE RISK FOR CUT HAZARDS
Cut hazards pose a serious danger to officers involved in enforcing law and order. As their duties may entail going after violent offenders, controlling crowds at demonstrations, and dispersing people during riots, police and military personnel are prone to personal attacks. BUFF® Safety uses the best cut-resistant fabric on its neck gaiters and multifunctional tubulars to offer the best cut protection for the neck and face in these situations.
Meanwhile, workers exposed to cut hazards, as introduced by their workplace environment or the tools they use, also need cut-resistant neck protection that will allow them to perform their job safely. The BUFF® Safety Cut-Resistant Neckwear easily fulfills this function. But not only that, it features a four-way stretch fabric that makes for comfortable wear even for long hours.
Where fire is also a hazard in addition to cuts, BUFF® Safety also offers a cut + fire-resistant tubular that protects the wearer from cuts, fire, and electrostatic discharge.
BUFF® Safety cut-resistant neckwear can be transfer printed with a Public Administration logo or Institution name, produced with a fully customized design, print, or pattern, and dyed in any color. Learn more about customized cut-resistant neck protection by BUFF® Safety.

DYNEEMA® FABRIC: STRONGER-THAN-STEEL PROTECTION
BUFF® Safety uses the best cut-resistant fabric that reduces the risk of cuts while still providing comfort for the user. Dyneema® is a highly advanced fabric that is 15 times stronger than steel—and that’s many times better than any other anti-cut neck protection. Yet, it is conveniently lightweight: 30% lighter than polyester and nylon, and 45% lighter than aramid.
Combined with Nomex®, BUFF® Safety products also offer cut + fire-resistant protection. This additional protection is especially needed by riot police, for instance, who are not only exposed to cut hazards but also fire hazards from explosions. Nomex® has excellent flame-retardant properties, is resistant to high temperatures, and will not melt, drip, or combust in air. Thanks to two outer layers of Nomex® and an inner layer of Dyneema®, BUFF® Safety Cut + Fire-Resistant Neckwear offer the full coverage needed in such high-risk situations.
Cut resistance in personal protective equipment is rated on a scale of A to F under the EN ISO 13997:1999 standard. BUFF® Safety cut-resistant neck gaiters are rated with High Cut Protection Level D as protective clothing resistant to cutting by sharp objects. The fabric used in the CUT RESISTANT family also complies with the EN 388:2016 standard, specifically, article 6.3 for cut resistance against mechanical risks due to sharp objects.
PROTECTION FOR THE MOST VULNERABLE PARTS OF THE BODY
The neck is undoubtedly a very important part of the body that should always be kept protected. It is particularly vulnerable to injury, and thus leaving it exposed when any threat of assault is present is a mistake that could cost the life of a police officer or a worker. This makes cut-resistant neck protection an essential part of any personal protective equipment intended for law enforcement officers, military personnel, security professionals, and other workers who are exposed to cut hazards. Wearing BUFF® Safety Cut-Resistant Neckwear will minimize the risk of cuts to the neck for these high-risk roles.
