Helmets Overview
Helmets has been a concentration of our design work over the past decade. The number of helmets sold that incorporate our designs and engineering is well over three million pieces worldwide. This design has been primarily in the mass market retail arena. At an average retail value of $50 USD, this translates into 150 Million dollars of product. Projects have included both brand specific and ODM shapes that have been branded by many of the top helmet brands.
Helmets are tested to internationally agreed upon standards, CE, ASTM, EN norms. Protection is paramount and our designs are developed from the very beginning with compliance and meeting or exceeding the standards for safety and protection.
Fit is the next critical factor, getting a good fit has been a primary focus. We have developed technologies that save tooling and increase comfort across the board. These efforts result in helmets that can be universally sold around the world. Previously certain markets required unique tooling due to differences in head shapes. Our unique patented technologies allow manufacturers to save resources and money.
Design for manufacturing is the key to a successful design, if the factory can make a product in numbers, then consumer demand can be met and everyone is happy. We roll up our sleeves and get our hands into the processes that make better products faster and more efficiently. For helmet manufacturing we have designed full scale processes that have saved millions of dollars in energy consumption through efficiency and saved hundreds of thousands of man hours in improved cycle time and work flow.
