Helmets
Safety Innovators
Our helmets are built with safety and the POC mission at the center of the development process. To be at the forefront of safety, innovation and development we also use POC Lab, our scientific forum, which brings together medical experts from a range of disciplines to advise us. The results: precise EPS density zones; superior material quality; uni-body construction; ergonomic straps; enhanced visibility; adjustment systems for individual precision and fit, are just some of the safety features found in our helmets.

Aerodynamics
Helmets
Aerodynamic Control
Understanding aerodynamics is fundamental to performance. By using our experience, award-winning technology, input from our professional riders and teams and our highly specialized aerodynamic advisers in WATTS Lab, our goal is to always develop products which allow a cyclist to go faster, while using less energy. Wind tunnel testing, computational fluid dynamics and real-world racing all support the development process.

Ventilation
Helmets
Cool down, speed up
Overheating represents one of the greatest challenges for a cyclist, which in turn affects performance and safety. The ventilation in POC helmets has been tested and developed withpro riders and teams which allows constant refinement to ensure that the helmets excel at the very highest level. The Tempor, with its unique, oversized single vent or the venturi inspired Ventral, highlight the role that the precise ventilation and airflow can play in performance.

Weight
Helmets
Lightweight engineering
Cycling performance and weight are synonymous. To create the best and lightest helmets, without sacrificing safety or performance is an essential pre-requisite in our helmet development. Through our unique approach we have designed helmets with a host of optimized features, including the ability to manage linear and oblique impacts, and still extremely lightweight. The Octal and Ventral are perfect examples where the best in lightweight and safety happily co-exist.
Cycling
Fit
Helmets
Personalizing fit
To support safety in the best way possible a helmet should sit comfortably and stay in place securely at all times, especially during a fall. If part of your head is exposed when you hit the ground, the helmet will not be able to protect you as well. Which is why we our helmets are designed with a host of adjustment options to ensure a precise and secure fit.
INNOVATION
POC has been at the forefront of protection and helmet technology for a number of years. To deliver on our mission, and developed using feedback from our pro-team athletes and medical experts, POC helmets are all developed with our whole helmet concept at the center of our design process; using optimized materials throughout the helmet. SPIN (Shearing Pad Inside) is our patent pending silicone pad technology system which uses innovative materials and design to complement POCs whole helmet approach.

Dynamic Testing
CFD simulation and testing is our preferred method for aerodynamic design as it delivers enhanced levels of consistency and comparability, which gives us to ability to use our expertise, test ideas and fine tune specific details, such as the precise airflow over a helmet, how a rider’s body affects the helmet design, channel widths and angles as well as how to create the optimal wake and reduce turbulence.
