Unraveling the Science Behind Mips
Spawned by a synergy between an engineer and a neuroscientist, the Mips® brain safety system for industrial protection systems is crafted to bolster the safety features of industrial helmets. In specific instances of angled impacts, this method is designed to reduce the potentially dangerous forces that would typically be directed at the skull.
Not All Safety Helmets and Hard Hats Are Made the Same
The Difference Lies Within:

Switch Hard Hats to Safety Helmets?
Safety Helmets: Essential for the Workforce
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), a leading authority in workplace safety, strongly advocates for the use of safety helmets across numerous industries. Foremost among these are the construction and oil and gas industries, sectors characterized by their high-risk environments and demanding operations.
Working in these industries often involves tasks such as handling heavy machinery, electrical work, and working from significa

What is Mips Safety System?
Did You Know
Securis manufactured one of the first industrial helmets featuring Mips patented brain protection system.
The Mips safety system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful forces that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head.
Rotational Motion
The brain is typically more sensitive to rotational motion than linear motion because it has shear properties similar to water or ge
