APEX Type 2 Safety Helmets w/Clear Visor

When working on a construction site, you encounter a variety of safety hazards from every angle; that’s why proper head protection is essential. The Malta Dynamics Type 2 Safety Helmets meet the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard Z89.1-2014 for Type 2 Class C Helmets. This means they’re rated for impact to the top of your head as well as lateral impact to the sides and back of the head. These helmets go one step further and are also tested to meet the EN12492 standard.

The Malta Dynamics APEX Type 2 Safety Helmet with WaveOn Technology features a six-point suspension system for improved impact protection with adjustable head and chin straps for ultimate comfort and fit. Now equipped with WaveOn Technology, a contactless chip provides readily available access to documentation. Simply wave a smartphone over the WaveOn decal and register the product. WaveOn links a registered helmet to a worker’s training documentation, all in one place, without the need to download an app. Malta Dynamics is field-tested and worker-approved to keep you and your crew safe.

The Malta Dynamics line of construction helmets fit nice and low on your head instead of hoisted up on the top of the crown. They are designed to be the most comfortable helmet on the market and are equipped with strong lamp-carrying clips, that are compatible with all elastic banded headlamps on the market. These helmets are also compatible with most available ear protection attachments.

Type 2 helmets from Malta Dynamics offer the flexibility and comfort your workers desire, along with the durability you need for peace of mind.

Why Wearing a Construction Helmet is Crucial for Workplace Safety

The importance of wearing a construction helmet in work environments, especially those regulated by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, is reinforced by several statistics. According to the 2015 edition of the National Safety Council’s “Injury Facts” chartbook, over 65,000 workplace incidents in 2012 involved head injuries requiring days off work. In the same year, head injuries resulted in the deaths of 1,020 construction workers.

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) stand out as the most common type of head injury in the workplace. In the construction industry alone, TBIs were responsible for 2,200 fatalities between 2003 and 2010.

However, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) surveyed worksite accidents and injuries revealing a concerning trend: 84% of workers who suffered head injuries were not wearing protective headgear. This statistic highlights the critical role that not wearing construction helmets plays in the higher risk of severe head injuries and fatalities in the workplace.

Traditional Hard Hat vs Construction Safety Helmet

A traditional hard hat, is like a bike helmet, offering basic protection against impacts and falling objects, while an industrial helmet, is like a motorcycle helmet in design, providing enhanced coverage and stability. The safety helmet’s full coverage design ensures better side and rear head protection, a feature not typically found in the standard hard hat. Additionally, construction safety helmets often include integrated accessories for increased protection, a step up from the more basic industrial head protection offered by traditional hard hats.

Buy a Safety Helmet With a Visor

Adding a visor to a safety helmet can make it easier for your employees to do their jobs. Standard safety glasses often need to be repositioned, but a visor keeps the lens completely off your face, freeing up your hands and eliminating pressure behind your ears.

A clear or tinted visor is the perfect accessory for your Malta Dynamics Safety Helmet. Our visors are made from high-strength plastic and meet the ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2015 impact rating standard. The tinted visors are 99% ultraviolet (UV)-resistant, offering eye protection from the sun’s powerful rays.

What’s more, these visors are easy to use and maintain. They have a hinge feature that allows you to adjust the visor, so it’s there when you need it and stowed away when you don’t. They also have an anti-scratch lens with a rimless design that’s easy to clean — just use warm water and soap.
