The Cop Shield is a new concept whereby all police officers, on an everyday basis, can have quick access in their patrol car to a  lightweight, foldable, ballistic shield which can be used for most situations that can become life threatening at any time:

  1. traffic stops
  2. domestic disturbances calls
  3. other disturbance calls
  4. arrests with warrants

These four categories of situations are responsible for almost all police officer deaths by gunfire.

The Cop Shield can also be used in certain circumstances by SWAT Teams and three (two US and one Canadian) Police Chief Instructors confirmed that statement. 


The Cop Shield's key objective is to save police officer lives, with its terrible human and financial consequences to their family, their  organization, and to society at large.

In order to meet this objective the Cop Shield was designed and manufactured from the ground up for an everyday use by police officers.

This ballistic shield has many advantages:

  • There is no no metal component in the composite shield.
  • It's small: size is only 17” X 13" when folded and 17” X 26 when deployed, designed for easy access in patrol cars, e.g. the front passenger seat, especially when the officer is alone on patrol.
  • It weighs LESS than 6 pounds, which is 40% LESS than a similar shield.
  • It has a new sleek, horizontal design that is not threatening to peaceful citizens. It's also possible to order the Cop Shield with your own custom graphics design in front of the shield (extra fee).
  • Police and Security personnel can have their own graphics on the front.
  • It provides protection from knife and other handheld weapons.
  • Barrier, i.e. there is now a barrier, a cover, between the officer and the suspect, which police officers do not have at the moment. The ballistic vest is essential and should be worn; but it does not provide a barrier against felons with a gun and a criminal intent towards the patrolman or patrolwoman.
