Pac Fire Australia goes forward (but back) to early ownership beginnings

摘要

It is just more than 18 months since the ownership of Pac Fire Australia was reunited with the owners of Pacific Helmets New Zealand, and there has been a lot going on. But going back to the early beginnings, in the late 1990's the Pacific helmet range was distributed in Australia by the then Protector Safety company. The helmets began to make major inroads into the purchasing plans of both structural and bushfire agency operations as they were not only unique in their construction, but unlike many other helmets they were all certified to AS/NZS Standards. The Kevlar reinforced helmets were proving (and have proved) to provide both extremely high levels of personal safety and protection, but they are also lightweight and very durable. Helmets that are 15+ years old with considerable levels of use and abuse, are regularly tested to the original laboratory test procedures and they still pass as if they are new helmets. That is a claim not made by any other helmet manufacturer in the world.
