In recent years, knife-related crime has soared to record levels across England and Wales with over 45,000 offences in 2019 alone, with a third occurring in London. As someone working in private security, you’re often the first line of defence in high-risk environments from nightclubs, retail stores to events and corporate buildings.

Here’s the reality:
You don’t always know what you’re walking into but you do know that a knife attack can happen in an instant. That’s why slash-resistant clothing has become essential PPE in today’s world.

Made with materials like Kevlar® and Dyneema®, this gear protects against slashing attacks without compromising comfort or mobility. Whether you’re dealing with aggressive intruders, controlling crowds, or protecting assets, slash-resistant vests, sleeves, and uniforms can give you the confidence to do your job safely and effectively.

In a sector where visibility and authority can make you a target, having a layer of silent protection can make all the difference. It’s not just gear—it’s peace of mind.

Knife crime isn’t just something that happens “somewhere else.” From thefts gone wrong to violent customer confrontations, retail workers are increasingly exposed to danger especially in late-night shifts and high-footfall locations.

In 2019, knife-related offences in England and Wales hit a record 45,627 incidents and robberies spiked by 12%. For retail workers that means real risk, often with little protection.

But there is a solution: slash-resistant clothing.

Today’s protective garments are lightweight, discreet, and look just like everyday clothing. Whether you’re working the shop floor, managing queues, or handling cash, items like cut-resistant undershirts or arm sleeves provide a hidden layer of protection from sudden slashing attacks.

It’s a simple upgrade that could stop a life-threatening injury—and it sends a strong message: your safety matters.
