Gecko Head Gear - Marine Ballistic Helmet
Unrivalled Protection for Marine Rescue Organizations
With over 20 years of experience, Gecko Head Gear is a leading provider of marine safety helmets used by rescue organizations worldwide. Setting out to meet the highest protection standards in the industry while offering enhanced user comfort, Gecko enlisted SKYDEX to help with the development of their latest helmet – the Marine Ballistic Helmet (MBH). Through close collaboration, the two companies have revolutionized helmet design
The Gecko Head Gear Marine Ballistic Helmet (MBH) is the most advanced marine helmet model made by Gecko Head Gear. With SKYDEX as the impact protection layer on the MBH, Gecko’s latest helmet is accredited to BSI PAS 028:2002, the highest standard in the world for marine safety helmets. Highly durable and optimized for marine-use, the MBH is engineered to protect in the harshest environment.
Using the newest SKYDEX impact technology tuned specifically for helmets, Gecko was most impressed with the technology's ability to absorb an extreme amount of impact energy in very little space. "Partnering with SKYDEX on the design of the MBH we were able to slim down the profile of our shell to allow for enhanced user wearability without sacrificing performance," stated Jake Sacree, Company Manager for Gecko Head Gear. After a dynamic development process, SKYDEX and Gecko are excited to offer a helmet engineered specifically for cutting-edge protection in the marine environment.
