Steelbird helmets have launched new “Hi-GN” range of helmets, the “Hi-GN” helmets are made to meet the cleanliness needs of the rides. The brand is focused on the hygiene factor, performance and safety feature. The new Hi-GN helmets are made up of high quality performance fabric to keep the riders fresh in hot and humid conditions and they are also useful for long rides. The Steelbird Hi-GN helmets comes featured with washable and removable interior, which is also anti-allergic, anti-bacterial and anti odor in nature. The textile used in the helmets are tested against antimicrobial activity, which is a noble feature and not commonly seen in most of the entry level helmets. The skin friendly Bactirio static coating comes featured with the inner fabric of the Hi-GN helmets for less irritating experience for the rider. This feature makes the helmet less irritant when it comes in contact with the skin of the rider.
The bactirio static coating also acts as anti bacteria as the coating restricts the growth of bacteria in the inner fabric of the helmet. With the technology like bactirio static coating the riders need not to worry about the infection in the scalp. The anti bacterial technology is ever lasting and it will never wash out from the fabric as the feature is actually embedded in the fibres of the fabric itself.
Commenting on the launch event, Shailendra Jain Global Group Head - Sales & Marketing, Steelbird Helmets said,
We often see young riders facing hair loss problem especially due to helmets. Sweating, dirt, food particles, multiple people sharing the same helmets and airborne bacteria getting rubbed in the helmet padding and breeding and multiplying in the warm environment is what affects the scalp health and in turn leads to hair loss. Our Hi-GN Steelbird helmets have been specially designed to do away with the hygiene related problem on the go. A lot of R&D has been done to combat the problem of the riders facing scalp infection owing to helmets. This model will surely bridge the gap considering the hygiene features allowing the riders to enjoy the ride with maximum comfort.
The Steelbird Hi-GN helmets are available at all leading Steelbird outlets and online on steelbirdhelmet.com. The Hi-GN helmets are available in four categories namely Dashing (Non- Painted) Rs. 1329/, Glossy (Painted) Rs. 1489/, Hunk (With Decals) Rs. 1739/ and Attis (With Decals) Rs.1669/-.
