In-mould technology
The in-mould helmet technology is currently the best method for producing ultralight helmets that offer high stability and maximum protection. This technology involves injecting EPS (expanded polystyrene) foam directly into the polycarbonate shell of the helmet in a single operation using steam, generated by pressure and heat (sintering). This process prevents the separation of the shell and foam structure, resulting in better resistance to impact forces and ensuring maximum strength and safety.

MPE support for every stage of development
Designing a bicycle helmet is a very complex process and good results are achieved by finding the perfect combination of numerous factors. Our research and development department can face every challenge during the process, from the first sketch on paper to the optimisation of the smallest details on the finished product.
We start with preliminary sketches and research on cutting-edge materials and technologies. Next, we use advanced computer modeling systems to turn the initial idea into a three-dimensional form. These systems take into account various mathematical parameters to ensure the design meets the strictest safety requirements based on international standards.
Prototyping and manual modelling
The next step involves prototyping, allowing us to visually analyze lines and the balance of shapes with a real aesthetic vision. This process helps us identify any technical difficulties and technological processes for optimization the final product. Manual modeling of the prototype allows us to refine and finalize the design.
Attention to details
For a helmet to be called excellent, it’s essential to take care of every detail. It is very important to check the helmet's ventilation flow, a fundamental feature to guarantee comfort and performance. To ensure proper ventilation, we use wind tunnel tests.
Engineering
Then, the technical department manages the engineering stage, evaluating all the technical aspects and critical points often required by innovative ideas. The development of moulding equipment must consider design issues and potential obstacles related to shape, technology, and materials. Our experts can solve any problems related to the setup and management of the molding cycle.
Sampling
The first samples get tested in our laboratories to identify any problems and eliminate them. Once the internal tests meet the parameters of required standards, we proceed with production and send the samples to qualified institutions for approval. Meanwhile, a selection of samples are kept to define colour parameters and finishes for the final versions.
Industrialisation and production
The industrialisation phase is about planning production, cost optimization, and the fine tuning of equipment and production cycles. After the approval and issuing of homologation tests, we are ready for the production of a new product.
