EN standards (European Norms) define the minimum safety and performance requirements for personal protective equipment, including safety helmets. All JSP safety helmets are designed and tested to not only meet but exceed these standards.
Here are the key EN standards relevant to JSP safety helmets:
EN 14052:2012 – High-Performance Industrial Helmets
Intended for use in high-risk environments where there is danger from falling or swinging objects.
- Crown impact tested to 100 Joules.
- Side impact tested to 50 Joules.
This is over three times the crown impact requirement of EN 397.
EN 397:2012 – Industrial Safety Helmets
Suitable for general industrial environments where the risk involves falling objects.
- Crown impact tested to 49 Joules.
This is the most commonly referenced standard for industrial helmets.
EN 50365:2002 – Electrically Insulating Helmets
Applies to helmets used for work on low-voltage installations up to 1000 volts AC.
- All JSP Mk Evolution® helmets comply with this standard, providing an extra layer of electrical protection.
These standards ensure that JSP helmets deliver reliable protection in a wide range of working conditions, from standard industrial sites to environments with high impact risk or electrical hazards.
Key points:
- EN standards define safety performance for protective helmets in Europe.
- EN 14052 is for high-risk environments, with superior impact protection.
- EN 397 applies to standard industrial safety helmets.
- EN 50365 covers helmets for electrical work up to 1000V.
- All JSP helmets meet and exceed these standards.
