Safety
SHARK Helmets constructs its helmets under ultra-modern, hi-tech performance manufacturing processes placing safety firmly at the center of all concerns. A close working relationship with its racers enables SHARK Helmets to elevate performance and safety levels under all conditions of use for maximum security.
What makes the difference? We design our helmets to exceed all current helmet safety standards. The consistent test results that have been awarded by the independent SHARP helmet tests are evidence: from 4 to 5 stars on all SHARK full face models tested, from S700 to Race -R PRO.
* SHARP is an independent British helmet test initiated by the U.K. government that initially launched the Euro NCap standard in the automobile industry. (http://sharp.direct.gov.uk/)
A number of quality control tests are carried out in our own laboratories to ensure optimum quality all throughout the production phase. SHARK Helmets exceed all current safety standards in all the countries where they are distributed.
SHARP Label
SHARP (Safety Helmet Assessment and Rating Program) is a control and rating program for helmets. This UK label aims at guiding riders towards the most protective helmets. The tests have been organized by the UK department for transport, and the concept was made by the same department that initiated the NCAP rating in the car industry. All our helmets that have been tested show very positive results, demonstrating the merits of our efforts. SHARK Race-R PRO carries 5 out of 5 stars.
