Why invest
Undatech is founded by two female veterans who mobilised their extensive operational experience to address critical safety and performance gaps in frontline PPE.

Fire-safe ergonomic undergarments for high-risk workforces

UndaTech addresses safety and comfort gaps in traditional personal protective equipment (PPE), particularly for women. Already worn by women on Ukraine’s frontlines, UndaTech uniquely integrates fire protection and performance for wear in high-risk environments. ADF trials begin July 2025, with commercial sales launching in Q3.

  • UndaTech designs fire-safe, ergonomic undergarments and base layers for defence, first responders, and high-risk sectors, solving the safety and integration failures of traditional garments, especially for women.

    Compatible with existing PPE, these products enhance operational performance and ensure compliance with Personal Protective Clothing (PPC) uniform standards. Backed by operational trials, scalable manufacturing, and a diversified D2G, B2B, and D2C strategy, UndaTech strengthens frontline readiness and modernises the protective ensemble.

    • Commercial undergarments aren’t designed for the extreme conditions faced by high-risk workforces.
    • Many of these undergarments are flammable and incompatible with existing gear, particularly for women.
    • With more than 11.2 million personnel in these roles across Five Eyes and NATO, there is global demand for protective base layers that meet operational needs and enhance safety and comfort.
    • Australian Defence Force (ADF), NATO and US military forces
    • Fire, police, and emergency services across Australia, NATO and the US
    • In use by Ukrainian forces; ADF trials successfully completed in 2025
