Tiger Supplies offer a wide range of Head Protection products, which are one of the most important aspects of personal protective equipment (PPE) to provide better protection for the skull and brain.
Tiger Supplies supplies professional head protection solutions for businesses, contractors, and trade professionals operating across the UK. Our range of head protection equipment is designed to reduce the risk of head injuries in environments where impact, low clearance, or overhead hazards are present.
As a trusted UK PPE supplier, we provide safety head protection suitable for construction, industrial, maintenance, transport, and specialist work settings. From robust hard hats for high-risk sites to lightweight bump caps for low-impact environments, Tiger Supplies supports organisations that require dependable PPE head protection with consistent availability and fast UK delivery.
Our head protection PPE range is structured by protection type and accessory compatibility, allowing businesses to source compliant equipment efficiently while supporting different working conditions and job roles.
Each sub-category links to dedicated product ranges, helping customers quickly identify the correct head protection equipment while supporting internal navigation across related PPE categories.
In many working environments, head protection equipment is worn alongside other PPE that sits on the head or face but is not classified as primary head protection. These products play a critical role in supporting overall safety and are often used in combination with hard hats, bump caps, and helmet accessories.
Tiger Supplies stocks compatible PPE designed to integrate with PPE head protection, helping businesses maintain full compliance without compromising comfort or usability.
Using compatible PPE alongside safety head protection helps businesses reduce risk across multiple hazard types while ensuring workers can wear all required protection together comfortably and correctly.
Head protection is required across a wide range of industries where there is a risk of impact, falling objects, low clearance hazards, or restricted working spaces. The type of head protection equipment required will depend on the environment, task, and level of exposure.
Selecting the correct PPE head protection helps businesses meet safety requirements, reduce injury risk, and avoid site access issues caused by non-compliant equipment.
Selecting the correct head protection depends on the working environment and level of risk. Hard hats are typically required in areas where falling objects or overhead hazards are present, such as construction sites, roadworks, and industrial facilities.
Many workplaces also require safety head protection that integrates with other PPE. Helmet-mounted ear defenders and visors allow workers to maintain effective protection without compromising comfort or compatibility.
Head protection PPE used in professional work environments must meet recognised European EN safety standards. These standards define how helmets and bump caps are tested for impact, penetration, and additional safety requirements such as electrical insulation or side impact resistance.
Understanding EN standards helps businesses select compliant head protection that matches the level of risk on site.
EN 397 – Industrial Safety Helmets
The standard for industrial safety helmets used in construction and manufacturing. Helmets are tested for a 50-joule crown impact to protect against falling or flying objects. Side impact testing is not included.
EN 12492 – Mountaineering & Specialist Safety Helmets
Designed for dynamic environments with multi-directional impact risks. Helmets are tested for front, rear, and side impacts, along with penetration resistance.
EN 14052 – High-Performance Industrial Helmets
Applies to helmets offering enhanced protection. Testing includes higher energy impacts, with up to 100 joules to the crown and additional side impact and penetration testing.
EN 50365 – Electrically Insulated Safety Helmets
For helmets tested for electrical insulation up to 1000V AC. Suitable for electrical, utilities, and maintenance work where live components may be present.
EN 812 – Industrial Bump Caps
The standard for industrial bump caps designed to protect against minor knocks and scrapes. Bump caps do not protect against falling objects and should not replace safety helmets where impact hazards exist.
Selecting head protection PPE that meets the correct EN standard helps businesses maintain compliance, reduce injury risk, and equip workers with appropriate protection for their working environment.
What is the difference between hard hats and bump caps?
Hard hats are designed to protect against impact from falling or flying objects and are typically required on construction and industrial sites. Bump caps provide lightweight head protection against minor knocks in low-risk environments.
