Our products

The Mips® safety system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head. The Mips system is used in many helmet types and by more than 150 brands.

Traditional helmets are designed and tested for straight impacts, but most impacts are angled, which can cause rotational motion to the head.

The rotational motion can cause brain injuries.

The Low Friction Layer is intended to help reduce the rotational motion to the head in certain angled impacts.

The principle of the Mips® safety system

Overall, Mips® technology is designed to work on the same principle of the brain’s own protective system which allows the brain to move slightly inside the head during an impact, which can greatly reduce the risk of injuries.

What is Mips®?

Mips, or Multi-Directional Impact Protection System, is a technology designed to reduce the risk of brain injury in the event of an oblique impact to the head. Oblique impacts are those in which the head strikes an object or surface at an angle, rather than straight-on. These types of impacts can cause the head to rotate upon impact, which can lead to injury to the brain.

Who is the Mips® system for?

The Mips® system is for everyone that uses a helmet. Whether you are riding on two wheels, on the slopes or working in construction, the Mips system can provide added safety to your helmet.

How does the Mips® system work?

Mips works by adding a low-friction layer within the helmet, known as the Mips layer. It allows the head to move slightly within the helmet upon impact. This movement helps to dissipate the energy from the impact, reducing the risk of injury to the brain.

How much does it cost and where can you buy it?

There are helmets equipped with Mips systems across several price points. The price of the helmet is set by the helmet company. You can today buy a helmet equipped with a Mips system from most of the largest helmet brands.
