In the U.S. con- struction industry, 68 percent of traumatic brain injuries are caused by work-related falls, yet, traditional hard hat systems are only designed to protect against falling objects from above. To fill that gap, STUDSON launched the classic SHK-1 in 2019, and in June of 2023, released a revamped, full-brim version to deliver a familiar full brim hard hat silhouette in an ultra-safe package. Typical Type I hard hats only protect from top impacts, not falls. However, the majority of injuries on the construction site result from falls, trips, and slips from 6 feet or less. STUDSON Safety Helmets meet both ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2014 (R2019) Type I and Type II Standards. Meaning STUDSON protects from all angles, defending the wearer from the full arsenal of jobsite hazards with its unique blend of embedded technologies. Setting the standard for impact protection technology, Koroyd welded tubes crumple instantly on impact to absorb maximum force to protect your skull and brain from direct and angled impacts, offering 48% more protection than standard EPS foam. This vital technology may reduce the risk of suffering a life-changing injury or life-threatening injury. With twICEme®, vital information is at your fingertips when seconds matter most. twICEme®technology utilizes an NFC chip that stores critical medical information and emergency contacts, giving first responders access to important information when seconds matter. STUDSON Safety Helmets are designed with lightweight construction, an adjustable rear dial system, and an integrated chin strap. The Full Brim SHK-1 offers a secure and comfortable fit, a breathable design to minimize heat build-up, and a new, fa- miliar form factor that the industry is known to love. Ultimately, it allows for optimal wearer comfort, and keeps helmets on workers’ heads, all day long. The new STUDSON SHK-1 Full Brim Safety Helmet is the most innovative helmet on the market. By prioritizing a Type II helmet, employers ensure the well-being of their workers, while workers gain confidence in their safety. Don’t compromise on safety.
