Integrated IR reflectance control
In critical operations, discretion is a survival tool. NERIDE shield is an advanced polyamide fibre specifically developed to manage infrared reflectance in textile structures used in tactical and defence environments.
Unlike surface finishes, NERIDE shield incorporates specialised additives directly into the polymer during the spinning process. This enables an intrinsic and long‑lasting reduction of infrared visibility when integrated into appropriate fabric constructions.
Key benefits
Infrared visibility reduction: optimises thermal and visual signature against night‑vision devices.
Compatibility with camouflage systems: seamlessly integrates with current camouflage patterns to maximise concealment.
Durable functionality: as it is integrated into the fibre, the protection is not lost through use, abrasion or washing.
Operational discretion: enhances safety in demanding operational conditions and hostile environments.
Main applications
Military combat uniforms: standard equipment for low‑visibility missions.
Tactical garments: clothing for special forces and security agencies.
Defence textiles: tents, backpacks and equipment covers that require IR signature management.
