The sporty Portwest PW69 bump cap offers reliable head protection for professionals at risk of minor impact during their daily work. This model is specially designed for situations where a standard safety helmet is not mandatory, but you still want protection against scrapes and bumps. Thanks to its sporty look and light weight, this cap is a comfortable alternative to traditional head protection in the workplace.
For which tasks and sectors is this Portwest PW69 bump cap most suitable?
This type of head protection is excellent for warehouse staff, mechanics, and professionals in logistics or light industry. In these sectors, the risk of bumping one's head against static objects, such as shelving or machinery, is constantly present.
The cap is specifically intended for indoor use or for outdoor tasks where there is no danger from falling objects. Thanks to the large built-in mesh panels, the cap offers maximum airflow, which is ideal for warm working environments where physical exertion is involved.
Which safety standards does this bump cap meet and what does this mean for the wearer?
This model is CE-certified and fully complies with the European standard EN 812 for bump caps. This standard guarantees that the cap effectively protects the wearer against the consequences of bumping their head against hard, stationary objects, which can lead to serious scrapes or superficial head wounds.
The interior is equipped with a shock-absorbing ABS shell and durable high-density EVA foam. Please note: this standard is not equivalent to the EN 397 standard for safety helmets and therefore does not protect against falling loads.
The convenient Velcro closure ensures a quick and accurate fit. The long seven-centimeter peak also offers extra protection against bright light.
