Tested for effective protection

One of the missions at the heart of everything we do is to offer a product that can help protect thousands of kids worldwide. For us, it's not just about making bold claims, but about proving its real-world effectiveness through scientific evidence and testing.

Independently tested

Demonstrating that PADHAT hats can shield a child's head and reduce the risk of severe head injuries is a top priority for us. That's why we conducted impact absorption tests at ICS Laboratories, Inc. (USA).

The padding of our protective hats underwent rigorous testing in accordance with NOCSAE and ASTM F1446-2020 standards.

Impact absorption tests

What the tests revealed

The test results demonstrate that PADHAT's padding meets the ASTM F1446-2020 standards. Moreover, we can proudly say that our innovative protective hats exceed NOCSAE's highest requirements for athletic equipment headgear.

While it's essential to understand that our hat isn't a helmet, the padding, as confirmed by the test results, offers exceptional impact resistance. In simpler terms, the padded areas seamlessly align with high-performance athletic soft-shell headgear, such as a rugby cap.
