Safety helmets Technologies

Technologies

Nothing is more important than the safety of people in their day-to-day work! This is why we at uvex are constantly developing our products based on pioneering technologies. The objective: Combining protection, wearer comfort and relief in every product in the best possible way.

uvex u-cap sport

The ergonomically shaped hard shell with integrated shock-absorbing elements ensures safety and optimal wearer comfort.

Integrated shock-absorbing elements with honeycomb structure
The complete protective function in accordance with EN 812 is reproduced through a specially developed design with a honeycomb structure and integrated shock-absorbing elements.

Flexibility with armadillo design
With the armadillo design, the uvex u-cap sport has extra flexibility and adapts ergonomically to different head shapes and sizes. The extended ear section makes it easier to use earmuffs.

Continuously adjustable
The uvex u-cap sport can be attached to the head quickly and safely using the hinged Velcro fastening.

MIPS

The MIPS safety system is designed to provide additional protection for helmets during a wide variety of accidents. In certain impact situations, the MIPS system can reduce dangerous forces that might otherwise be transferred to the helmet wearer's head.

Linear impacts

Conventional helmets are designed and tested for linear impacts. In most cases, however, impacts occur at an angle and lead to a rotational movement of the head.

Angled impacts

The low-friction inner shell is designed to help reduce the rotational forces acting on the head in certain cases of an angled impact.
