Beeswift Economy Vented Safety Helmet

Beeswift Economy Vented Safety Helmet Overview:

The Beeswift Economy Vented Safety Helmet is an essential piece of personal protective equipment designed to provide reliable protection for your head while you work in hazardous environments. This helmet is made from high-density polyethylene, which is a tough and durable material that can withstand impact, punctures, and abrasions.

One of the key features of this helmet is its vented design, which allows for excellent airflow and ventilation to keep you cool and comfortable during extended periods of wear. This is particularly important in warm and humid environments where heat stress can be a serious concern.

The Beeswift Economy Vented Safety Helmet also features an adjustable chin strap and a six-point suspension system, which ensures a secure and comfortable fit for different head sizes and shapes. The suspension system also helps to distribute the weight of the helmet evenly across your head, reducing the risk of neck strain and fatigue.

Further information on the safety standards:

EN397

EN397 is the European Standard that specifies physical and performance requirements (including testing) for industrial safety helmets.

Testing procedure:

• Shock Absorption Test – A 5kg rounded striker is dropped on the crown of the helmet from 1m. The force transmitted to the head form cannot exceed 5KN.
• Resistance to Penetration Test – 3kg pointed striker dropped on the crown region, striker not allowed to contact the head form.
• Resistance to Flame Test – when exposed to a flame for 10 seconds and then removed, the shell must not set alight or self-extinguish within 5 seconds.

The relevant European standard can be found on the safety helmet, usually underneath the peak of the helmet so in this case look out for a EN397 standard for confirmation of performance.
