uvex climazone helmet ventilation

Keep a cool head at all times: The individually adjustable climazone ventilation ensures optimal ventilation. Three variable ventilation zones of the safety helmet can be opened or closed as you wish. The arrangement of the ventilation slots lets warm air escape, keeping a comfortable head climate in the safety helmet.

Innovative climate management from head to toe
The uvex climazone product system stands for climate management from head to toe. To do this, uvex has combined its expertise in research, material use and product development and is the only manufacturer of personal protective equipment to present a functioning climate concept, which is applied in an integrated approach across all product groups.
