The most important task of a head protector is to protect and reduce the risk of damage to the head from penetrating and falling objects. The helmet must distribute the force of impact. At the Safety Giant, we have a wide range of helmets. We carry brands such as KAsk, Uvex, 3M, MSA, PETZL, CENTURION and several others. The helmets have different properties for different purposes. Most safety helmets have a lifespan of 3 - 5 years from the date of manufacture. On the inside of the helmet there is a stamp which shows this. It is important not to put stickers or write with a felt-tip pen on a safety helmet. This can help to break down and reduce the durability of the material the helmet is made of.
