Today's officers are carrying more weight on their duty belt then ever before, which has departments across the country looking into ways to reduce the number of officer complaints of job related discomfort. Bianchi International, in recognition of this issue, has developed an entire line of lightweight duty gear they call AccuMold® Elite™, which specifically addresses these concerns.
"Bianchi's AccuMold® products have gained a worldwide reputation for being lightweight, extremely comfortable and durable," says Natt Stevens, National Law Enforcement Sales Manager for Bianchi. Stevens continued, "Unfortunately in the early days such products were only available in soft-sided ballistic nylon, which meant an officer would require a doctor's prescription to be allowed a deviation from the established uniform code, if nylon gear wasn't allowed." That all changed two years ago when Bianchi introduced their new AccuMold® Elite™ line, which has all the benefits of AccuMold® but now features a tough DuraSkin™ finish that looks just like leather. This new generation of lightweight gear has been so popular that Bianchi has expanded the line to include their ErgoTek™ ergonomic duty belts and their new lightweight SL3.2.1™ SpeedLok™ duty holster with Auto Retention™, (including its own built-in ergonomic pad on the belt loop.)
If your duty gear hurts and you're looking for a great alternative, try Bianchi's AccuMold® Elite™.

2003 - Bianchi introduces an exciting new duty belt technology that may well
change the way law enforcement looks at duty belts. Utilizing Bianchis
exclusive foam-molding technology, the ErgoTek™ system offers an innovative
design integrating molded "pillows" of high-density closed-cell foam to the
lining of the ErgoTek™ belt.
"Most conventional duty belts put the weight of the belt and accessories on the sharp, lower edge of the belt," said Mike Shire, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Bianchi. "The cushioned pillows lining the ErgoTek™ belt act like miniature shock absorbers, constantly adjusting to the wearer's movements while helping the sharp edges of the belt away from the body." He added, "It's an incredible innovation which has been receiving rave reviews from agencies that have tried it."
The ErgoTek™ belt is offered in a wide variety of styles and finishes to meet most uniform requirement
