The foundation of SKJOLD™’s performance lies in its advanced FREC-2™ isostatic pressing process. By applying uniform pressure up to 1000 bars, each plate achieves flawless structural integrity and density consistency — eliminating weak points while enhancing strength, comfort, and multi-hit capability.

• Produces thinner, lighter plates without compromising strength.
• Eliminates weak points through even density distribution.
• Enables higher ballistic performance and multi-hit durability.

Developed through extensive anthropometric research and end-user feedback, SKJOLD™ plates are engineered to follow the natural curves of the body. The ergonomic shape enhances freedom of movement and long-term comfort while maintaining full protective coverage in dynamic environments.

• Reduces pressure points and fatigue during extended wear.
• Improves load distribution and compatibility with carriers.
• Ensures consistent coverage across male and female operators.

SKJOLD™ achieves exceptional ballistic resistance through advanced composite materials and optimized geometries. Every plate is fine-tuned to maintain full protection while significantly reducing mass — ensuring comfort, mobility, and endurance for the modern operator.

• Exceptional weight-to-protection ratio validated through in-house testing.
• Reduces operator fatigue, increasing agility and endurance.
• Enables prolonged missions without sacrificing survivability.

The SKJOLD™ system delivers full-spectrum ballistic protection through scalable configurations that integrate seamlessly with NFM’s THOR™ load-bearing systems and GARM™ combat clothing. From standalone plates to full modular setups, SKJOLD™ adapts to any mission profile.

• Configurable as Stand Alone (SA), In Conjunction With (ICW), or Supplementary (SUP).
• Supports additional protection modules for extended coverage.
• Fully compatible with NFM’s plate carriers and tactical apparel.

In Old Norse, Skjold means shield — a symbol of protection, courage, and readiness. That legacy lives on in the SKJOLD™ Body Armor System, where ancient ideals of defense meet modern ballistic innovation.

Developed and manufactured by NFM in Europe, SKJOLD™ represents decades of experience in soldier protection. Every plate is the result of advanced materials research, precision manufacturing, and in-house ballistic testing. The system combines lightweight strength, ergonomic comfort, and scalable coverage — ensuring operators stay protected and mobile in the most demanding environments.

From the first concept to final validation, SKJOLD™ was built with one purpose: to safeguard those who stand on the front line. A modern shield for the modern warrior.
