SAFETY FOR HELMETS
ABOUT MIPS®
MULTI-DIRECTIONAL IMPACT PROTECTION SYSTEM
Safety is the number one focus at MET and our research is unparalleled.
Each year we make a significant financial investment dedicated solely to safety.
We collaborate closely with the world’s best experts and the most renowned bio-mechanical engineers
to ensure that our knowledge and understanding is at the forefront of helmet manufacturing.
We are one of the few brands that have a full in-house testing facility.
We are able to simulate any kind of impact from not only following the certification standards
but also with rotational impact testing.
WHY MIPS?
MIPS is the most accredited solution by independent studies and is the benchmark when it comes to managing rotational forces.
What is MIPS?
MIPS is a brain protection system
engineered to add 10% extra safety to the standard construction of helmets in case of certain impacts.
The MIPS Brain Protection System (BPS) is attached inside the helmet, between the comfort padding and the EPS.
IS A MIPS HELMET SAFER?
Not all impacts are the same. Falling at an angle creates rotational motion, in case of angular impacts the low friction layer can reduce harmful forces transmitted to the brain.
IS MIPS CUSTOMISED FOR ALL OF THE HELMETS?
We’ve worked closely with MIPS to achieve efficient ventilation while also enhancing the helmet’s safety features.
All of the MIPS systems implemented into our helmets have been designed to address this goal.
TRANSPARENCY
We are facing plenty of contradictory claims and information to-day. MET strongly promotes transparent and open communication, especially about such a delicate and
complicated topic.
