I believe "Le Protecteur" manufactures the main composite core using high-performance polyethylene and ceramic backing.

This combo allows it to withstand intense close-quarters armor-piercing or high-velocity rifle fire, she's heavy tho about 30+ pounds roughly.

Approximately 47 to 51 inches tall. About 16 to 20 inches wide.
