This enables all UK ambulance services and other qualifying public bodies to source the country’s most popular paramedic helmet at a uniform nationwide price.

The Pacific Helmets A7A is fast becoming the standard-issue helmet for UK ambulance services; with more than 8000 currently in use throughout England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. It offers the most up-to-date and modern form of head protection in an economical, very comfortable, lightweight and wearable package.

Manufactured from Kevlar reinforced composite shells, the A7A helmet gives the perfect combination of safety, balance and wearer comfort. A jet-style design ensures that it is not only functional but looks good too.

Use of composites also means that the helmets last and last. Tests prove helmets that have been in service for over 10 years still pass stringent EN443 testing.
