AIR-Plate® Cooling System

STAY COOL.
PERFORM BETTER.

Active Cooling System for body armour.

When heat builds beneath your vest, sweat increases, strain rises and focus fades. AIR-Plate® delivers active airflow beneath your vest — right where heat and moisture accumulate. No ice. No water. No pre-cooling. Just controllable airflow whenever you need it.

Swiss Engineered

Developed with precision for tactical use.

Independent Lab Tested

Validated by an independent Swiss institute.

6 Years Development

Built through multiple product generations.

Built for Real Operations

Designed for heat, pressure and long shifts.

The Problem

Your body armour protects you.
But it also traps heat.

Body armour is designed to protect. Yet beneath it, airflow is restricted. Heat and moisture accumulate, sweat evaporates less effectively, and your body must work harder to regulate its temperature. As heat exposure increases, so does the physical strain — at the exact moment you need to remain focused, composed and ready to perform.

01

Heat builds.

Heat and moisture remain trapped beneath your vest.

02

Cooling is limited.

Your body's natural cooling process is restricted.

03

Fatigue sets in.

Your body works harder as heat and physical strain increase.

04

Focus fades.

Staying clear, alert and composed becomes more difficult.

Stay protected. Manage the heat.

The Solution

Active airflow beneath your vest. You control the intensity.

AIR-Plate® creates controlled airflow where heat and moisture normally accumulate. Compact fan modules move warm, humid air away from the body and support evaporative cooling — helping reduce heat build-up, physical strain and loss of focus.

Sweat evaporates. Performance returns.

How It Works

How AIR-Plate works

Simple to use. Easy to control. Built for the field.

1

Choose your configuration

Wear the UnderVest beneath your body armour or attach the DirectMount system to a compatible vest or plate carrier.

2

Activate the system

Use the Power Controller to start airflow whenever heat and moisture become a problem.

3

Set your airflow

Choose between three airflow levels and adjust the intensity as conditions change.

4

Stay sharp

AIR-Plate supports evaporative cooling, helping you remain focused, composed and ready to perform.

3 Levels. Airflow on demand.

Performance Outcomes

Built for clear decisions when the heat rises.

AIR-Plate® is designed for professionals who cannot compromise on performance.

Sustained performance

Supports clear decisions and consistent performance as temperatures rise.

Reduced fatigue

Helps preserve energy in demanding conditions.

Lower physical strain

Eases the burden of heat on your body.

Moisture control

Active airflow reduces sweat build-up beneath your body armour.

Greater comfort

Cooling and reduced moisture create a more comfortable wearing experience.

Improved hygiene

Less retained moisture helps reduce odour and creates a fresher environment beneath your vest.

Validation

Engineered in Switzerland.
Independently tested.
Built for professionals.

AIR-Plate® was developed and refined in Switzerland over six years. The principle is simple: create active airflow where body armour restricts natural ventilation. The engineering behind it is not. Independently tested by a Swiss institute, AIR-Plate was built for professionals who cannot afford to compromise on performance.

  • 6 years of development
  • 104 W/m² lab-tested cooling power
  • 220 L/min active airflow

FAQ

Questions before you join?

AIR-Plate is an active airflow system for tactical body armour. It moves air under the vest so sweat can evaporate better and heat can escape.
No. AIR-Plate is not a cooling vest. It is an active cooling system designed to work with tactical body armour and plate carriers.
No. AIR-Plate does not require ice, water or pre-cooling. It uses controlled airflow to support natural evaporative cooling.
No. AIR-Plate works with active airflow. There is no water, no coolant, no tubes and no liquid circuit.
Micro-fan modules create airflow under the vest. This helps sweat evaporate and moves warm air out of the space under the vest.
Through the Power Controller. Airflow can be regulated across three levels.
AIR-Plate is designed as a retrofit system for tactical body armour and plate carriers. Final compatibility details will be communicated before launch.
The system is designed for long operational use. Final battery runtime will be confirmed before campaign launch.
