Outside of sports, military and law enforcement, there exist areas where various types of body padding are needed. For example, fall protection for the elderly, knee pads for workers, head pads for low headroom areas, bump caps for mechanics, and the list goes on. The selection of padding materials for any specific application involves a review of the input energy, pressure distribution, injury or pain tolerance, resilience, environmental stability and a host of case-by-case variables that must be considered. Biokinetics has designed and tested many different padding systems and is familiar with padding materials, test methods and human injury tolerance to help you arrive at the best possible solution.
