SD has a general policy of blast-testing PPE before its release. This is not considered necessary when making minor variations to existing equipment (such as changing the length of a blast-apron) but is always done when a new material, process or product is introduced.

The ultimate "blast-test" is the performance in real accidents

The results of demining accidents recorded in the DDAS show that Security Devices products perform at least as well as all other in real explosive events. Our body-armour aprons have been involved in at least fifty real accidents and our visors in well over a hundred accidents. They have always performed at least as well as other brands (and demonstrably better than some). Our hand-tools have also been involved in recorded accidents and have always performed as designed.
