European standards define the minimum performance requirements of the safety helmet. All JSP safety helmets meet and exceed these requirements.
EN 14052
High-performance industrial helmets: Designed for higher risk environments where objects are falling or swinging. It requires crown impact testing of 100 Joules and side-impact testing of 50 Joules, which is more than three times the requirements of EN 397.
EN 397
Industrial safety helmets: Designed for environments where there is a risk of falling objects only. It requires crown impact testing of 49 Joules.
EN50365
This is an additional requirement for safety helmets used for working on live electrical installations up to 1000 volts. All of the Mk Evolution® range of safety helmets meet this standard.
