PROTECTION AT EVERY TIME

ANYONE CAN SUFFER A HEAD INJURY!

Whether you have a condition such as epilepsy, autism, cerebral palsy or Parkinson's disease, or simply want to improve your quality of life , Ribcap is designed for everyone : active children, young adults and seniors. Whatever challenge you have in life!
We strongly believe in the concept of fashion and safety . Both are becoming increasingly important. All Ribcaps are made with the highest quality fabrics, combined with our unique sewn-in protective pads .

WE WANT TO PREVENT HEAD INJURIES

Head injury is a major public health challenge and its magnitude is still insufficiently recognized. It is estimated that approximately half of the world's population will suffer a head injury one or more times in their lives.
Ribcap protects - not like a helmet, but much more than a regular hat, thanks to the sewn-in protectors. The inside of the hat consists of soft viscoelastic protectors instead of a hard shell . Unlike hard materials, which either keep their shape or break during an impact, viscoelastic materials change their shape, allowing them to absorb the energy of the impact . That is soft protection .

We offer you independence and elegance

Whether you have a condition such as epilepsy, autism, cerebral palsy or Parkinson's disease, or simply want to improve your quality of life, Ribcap is designed for everyone: active children, young adults and seniors. Whatever challenge you have in life!

Rib caps are particularly useful for all outdoor activities with minimal risks. Many of our customers also use their Ribcap in everyday life , as it is comfortable and stylish at the same time.

IS THE RIBCAP A KIND OF HELMET?

A Ribcap is a helmet, and is so much more than a regular hat. The company is fully committed to 'Soft Protection Technology' . Rib caps are intended for those who want to wear a comfortable, stylish hat , but also want to enjoy a certain degree of protection . As we say: “Ribcap your head and protect your style”.

WHAT KIND OF INJURIES DOES THE RIBCAP HELP PREVENT?

Every injury is different and every fall or shock has different consequences.
