Important clients use ballistic helmets
One of the areas Ulbrichts focuses on is providing helmets to police officers in the field who are often the first ones to respond to the report of a crime. As the market leader in Germany, Ulbrichts have supplied these helmets to 80-85% of the market.

Their modular solutions have also been used for more than 10 years by the German special forces. They also supply rifle protection helmets to the Ministry of the Interior in Austria, which is rated VPAM 3 and is capable of stopping a Kalashnikov.

Preventing injuries from bullet trauma
Since manufacturing their first helmets 30 years ago, Ulbrichts have focused on delivering 'True Protection'. Their helmets focus not only on stopping bullets, but also on preventing severe back-face deformation. This is achieved as the company tests their helmets according to VPAM ballistic standards.

With the standardized test procedures and measurement of back-face deformation allowed by this standard, Ulbrichts Protection make sure that back-face deformation never exceeds 25 Joules. Any value exceeding 25 Joules is generally understood to be a lethal trauma, which is not survivable.

"The main difference between our ballistic helmets and the classic NIJ IIIA Certified helmets that you find around the globe," Mr. Poandl said, "is that the NIJ IIIA helmets are produced for shrapnel protection and for stopping ammunition, not for trauma prevention. "
Lightweight ballistic helmets
Ulbrichts helmets are made of either titanium or titanium hybrids. "I would like to say we reinvented the helmet," Mr. Poandl said, "Between the design of the old titanium helmets and the newest generation, we saved around one kilogram.

"We offer products with the same weight of a ballistic helmet you could wear two years ago while doubling their protection level. We now have rifle-rated forehead shields that are certified with VPAM 6."

Comfort and modularity
While covering the important values such as stopping projectiles and preventing trauma, Ulbrichts also looks to focus on the comfort of the wearer. The helmets are run with the 'UniSize' system, the 'Best Balance' system and a liner suspension system.

"The helmets are close to and centered to your head, which you can adjust to your preference," Mr. Poandl explained, "So it gives you the best wearing comfort. On the other hand, it also gives you the freedom to choose your helmet in one helmet size, covering all head circumferences from 48 to 62cm. So, one size fits all."

These helmets can also be combined with Ulbrichts' other products. "You can combine them with our visors that are produced in house with a quick-mount solution," Mr. Poandl said, "The visors can be fixed to the helmet in two seconds. Just click it on and you're done.
