Studson says the new SHK-2 is its most advanced industrial safety helmet, designed, engineered, and built to comply with the ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2026 Type II+ standard.
It provides defense against both top and lateral impacts. The “+” reflects the 2026 edition’s added testing for chin strap retention, roll-off, and off-center force transmission.
The helmet’s core solely integrates Koroyd material under the shell. These precision-welded tubes eliminate the need for EPS foam, says Studson, providing a strong crumple zone for high-velocity impacts while enabling high airflow pathways to dissipate heat.
