Foam Helmet Uvex C500

The Uvex C500 foam helmet is a lightweight protective helmet for adult users, combining a foam core with an outer shell made from durable materials including polyethylene, viscose, polyamide and fiberglass. It is finished in a black and green color scheme and is intended to provide head protection in work environments where impact resistance and comfort are required. The design balances protective properties with fit adjustability to support extended wear during professional or recreational activities.

Advantages

The helmet combines a shock-absorbing foam interior with a robust outer construction to reduce force transfer from impacts. Materials such as polyethylene and fiberglass offer a mix of toughness and dimensional stability while viscose and polyamide contribute to internal comfort and fabric interfaces. The Uvex C500 is designed to sit securely on the head with a shape that supports good coverage of key impact zones, and its color scheme allows for visual distinction on site.

Suitable for

• General workplace head protection where light-to-moderate impact protection is required
• Maintenance, installation, and site inspection tasks
• Indoor industrial environments and non-extreme outdoor works
• Hobby or recreational activities that require basic protective headwear

Key specifications

• Construction: foam interior with a composite outer shell
• Materials: polyethylene, viscose, polyamide, fiberglass (components of shell and lining)
• Intended user: adult sizing and fit
• Color: black and green finish
• Weight: lightweight design suitable for extended wear
• Fit: adjustable fit system for secure positioning

How to use

Place the helmet on the head so that it sits level and covers the forehead and crown without obstructing vision. Adjust the fit system or straps until the helmet is held securely but comfortably; the helmet should not shift significantly during normal movement. Check the condition of the shell, foam lining and straps before each use and replace the helmet if you detect visible damage or after any significant impact. Follow any site-specific safety procedures and local regulations when using the helmet.

Recommendations

Use the Uvex C500 in environments appropriate for foam-based protective helmets and combine it with other required personal protective equipment as specified by workplace assessments. Store the helmet away from direct sunlight and chemicals to preserve materials, and replace it according to manufacturer guidance or after sustaining an impact.
