Head Protection – Product list

Safety helmets and hard hats

Our Safety Helmets range covers everything from KASK's Zenith and SuperPlasma ranges, built for EN 397 and EN 12492 rated protection, through to Scan's budget-friendly colour-coded hard hats for general site use. Colour matters on many UK sites: Build UK's colour coding system uses white for site managers, orange for slingers and signallers, black for site supervisors, and blue for everyone else, including visitors.

Standards and compliance

Head protection sold here is certified to the relevant EN standards depending on application: EN 397 covers general industrial hard hats, with a chinstrap designed to release under load to avoid strangulation risk. EN 12492 covers helmets built for climbing and work at height, with a secure chinstrap that keeps the helmet on during a fall. Where electrical protection is required, look for a model additionally rated to EN 50365, which specifies a stated voltage rating.

Helmet accessories

Our Helmet Accessories range lets you adapt a single helmet to different tasks and conditions rather than buying a separate helmet for each job. This includes visors for eye and face protection, such as the KASK Visor V2 Plus and ZEN Visor, ear defenders like the KASK Helmet Earmuffs in three protection levels, and chin straps such as the Scan 4 Point Chin Strap and Centurion Nexus Chin Strap for a more secure fit during active work.

Choosing the right combination

Fit is brand and model specific: check whether your helmet is a KASK Zenith, KASK SuperPlasma AQ/PL/HP, or a standard hard hat before ordering accessories, since visors and adapters don't interchange between different helmet systems. For cold weather work, hard hat liners add warmth underneath any standard helmet shell.

Frequently Asked Questions

A standard hard hat, like the Scan range, gives EN 397 general impact protection for groundwork and site use. KASK's SuperPlasma range steps up to EN 12492, built specifically for work at height and rope access with a stronger chinstrap.
Under Build UK's colour coding, white is worn by site managers and competent operatives, orange by slingers and signallers, black by site supervisors, and blue by everyone else, including visitors.
Only if the accessory is designed for that specific helmet model. Visors, ear defender adapters and other accessories are brand and model specific, so check compatibility with your exact helmet before ordering.
A bump cap, like the Scan Bump Cap, protects against minor knocks in low-risk environments only. A full safety helmet is required wherever falling objects or more serious impact risks are present.
