Bump Caps

Compare

Bump caps are a type of lightweight head protection designed to safeguard against minor bumps and scrapes. They resemble regular baseball caps but feature a hard inner shell made of durable materials like ABS plastic. This shell is built to absorb impact, providing protection from low-force collisions with stationary objects. Bump caps are not a substitute for hard hats but offer a practical solution for environments where heavy-duty head protection is not required. They are perfect for ensuring safety and comfort in low-risk situations.
