About us
A unique innovation certified to international safety standards
Tested and certified
When it comes to protecting your brain, a certification mark on the product from a governing body is a must.
Forcefield Protective Headgear™ has been independently tested at McGILL University, Canada at INTERTEK Laboratories USA and certified by INSPEC International, United Kingdom. Tested under the same rigid conditions as those for hockey helmets for absorbing and spreading out initial impact over a larger area: the international ASTM F 1045-87 Standard Performance (drop test). Compliant with F2439-06 for soccer injuries (head-to-head, head-to-goalpost, head-to-hard-surface). The product has been impact tested and certified to safety standards as well as product quality standards – The European Commission standard for personal protective equipment (PPE 89/686/EEC). The product is certified CE II as protective headgear. The only headband in the world having met all the stringent international requirements to be certified CE II as safety gear. .
A perfect fit for your sport and every day life
Effective Impact Absorption, fully disclosed to the public
Forcefield Protective Headgear™ is the only protective headband using a multi-patented system of pliable helmet polymers. It’s what makes it possible for the band to absorb and dissipate the force of an impact so significantly while remaining very thin.
- Forcefield Protective Headgear™ reduces impact deceleration even further than the standard a hockey helmet is expected to provide.
- Forcefield Protective Headgear™ demonstrated impact absorption up to 83%*.
- There were no significant differences in test results between the Sweatband and Ultra headgear. Your choice is a matter of personal preference.
*Impact absorption is a relative measure and is based on your size. The smaller your size, the higher the impact absorption. You’ll find the full public disclosure on the tech data sheet including test data and CE II personal protective equipment standards directives published here. For everyone, Forcefield Protective Headgear™, will significantly lessen the severity of the impact. A proven product that makes it super easy to add a layer of effective head protection. It’s as easy as wearing a sweatband.
Unique Design. Just thick enough to reduce impact forces significantly, but thin enough you'll look great wearing it.
