What is a safety standard?
A safety standard is a set of strict performance requirements that helmets must pass. These tests look at a range of scenarios such as impact absorption, crush resistance, penetration, harness strength, and stability.
Each standard has its own criteria, with some having a higher standard of pass requirement that others. Not every standard is equal ⚠️
The main standards are:
PAS 015:2011 (UK)
EN 1384:2023 (EU)
ASTM F1163-23 (USA)
SNELL E2021
