Cleaning and care: What's best for your safety helmet
Safety helmets should be adjusted according to proper fit and donning instructions to provide the best possible protection.When on your head – Never wear or store anything under your safety helmet except your head, even a sock cap or ball cap, as performance cannot be guaranteed and may result in injury (unless manufactured specifically for safety helmets, such as cooling technology).Suspension adjustments – Always adjust the suspension straps to maintain the proper fit to your head. You’ll want to find a spot where the safety helmet feels secure, yet not painfully tight. A loose safety helmet will not protect you as well as a properly fitting one.Reverse-donning – Before wearing backward, check if your safety helmet can be worn reverse-donned, which is represented by a reverse-donning symbol of two arrows following each other in a circle. The manufacturer is required to add this symbol if the helmet has reverse donning qualifications that meet the American National Standards Institute. The manufacturer may also specify that the suspension must be reversed in the helmet, so that the brow pad is against the forehead and the extended nape strap is at the base of the skull, leaving only the shell of the helmet positioned backward on the head.Read more -
