An Advanced Material for Superior Protection
Contego™ is a next-generation helmet foam engineered exclusively for head protection. Unlike standard EPS, Contego™ is created by lengthening polystyrene molecules, a breakthrough that results in enhanced crack resistance and greater rebound elasticity.
This advanced molecular design allows the material to bend and flex where others fail, giving helmets built with Contego™ a stronger foundation for safety and performance.
CONTEGO is Different
Contego™ gives helmet designers the freedom to push the boundaries of form and function while keeping safety at the center of every design. With 30% greater flex tolerance before failure, the material can deform under impact in a controlled way—slowing the transfer of energy and reducing peak forces that reach the brain.
This enhanced energy management allows engineers to explore new shapes, profiles, and performance features without sacrificing protection, resulting in helmets that are both innovative in design and reliable in real-world conditions.
Advanced Material Science Designed for Helmets
Built on a copolymer foam formulation, CONTEGO™ provides enhanced impact test performance over standard EPS foams and other alternatives. It is more resilient, more durable, and tougher to help helmets perform better in diverse conditions, including the hot and cold environmental conditions mandated by certification tests.
CONTEGO™ is the result of over 20 years of expertise in helmet foam development. Through extensive experimentation and directly comparing blocks of standard EPS and CONTEGO, the results are clear: CONTEGO withstands more flex, more force, and more conditions, delivering a step forward in rider protection.
