Brain Protection System
for Industrial Safety Helmets

VIEW PRODUCTS

Nearly 60% of head injuries involve angled impacts, which generate rotational forces.

Introducing Mips®, designed to help reduce rotational forces to the head.

CONCUSSIONS AND TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES ARE COMMONLY THE RESULT OF ROTATIONAL FORCE AND STRAIN TO THE BRAIN

Injury statistics demonstrate that impacts are more likely to occur at an angle instead of directly on top of the head. This is typically due to the forward energy of objects, or people, in motion. Over the past few years, science has shown that our brains are particularly sensitive to the rotational forces that result from angled impacts.

MIPS®: A Low Friction Designed Layer to help reduce the severity of head injuries

The Mips® Safety System allows for a 10-15 mm relative movement between the helmet and the head during the critical first 5-10ms of the impact. It is not uncommon that the point load on the head/helmet at impact is at 2,200 lbs. - the Mips® Safety System is designed to allow the helmet to move even under this kind of pressure

An in-depth look at the MIPS®

Founded by two engineers and a neuroscientist, the Mips ® brain protection system is meticulously tested prior to breing approve for use.
