BCB International, a long established designer and manufacturer of quality survival & protective equipment launches its latest essential piece of equipment for hot weather climate – The Mistral Body Cooling System.

BCB’s innovators have devised a major leap forward in under-armour body cooling. The Mistral is designed to be integrated with the body armour or can be worn as a separate garment underneath. The ‘Mistral’ has channels that blow cool air upwards from the small, battery powered motor and then outwards, away from the wearer. This enables a wicking undershirt to keep up with the evaporation of sweat from the body surface and has the secondary effect of also reducing core body temperature. The design improves on existing systems that are limited by weight or offer poor performance and it includes a system that ‘feels’ cool continuously as well as being robust, simple and reliable.

The specially designed system can be integrated into all types of body armour including Osprey, Kestrel and Interceptor.

The Mistral offers high performance compared with existing blown-air systems giving significant reduction in heat stress and thermal burden thereby increasing the physical capability of troops by improving combat performance and concentration.
