In what is arguably the most significant update to industrial head protection in decades, the current standard for Industrial Safety Helmets in EU and the UK  EN 397:2012+A1:2012 is set to be replaced by EN 397:2025, alongside updates to the electrical insulation helmet standard (EN 50365).

The new standards introduce defined helmet Types, enhanced compatibility testing, and clearer performance requirements—improving how helmets function alongside other PPE such as visors, face shields, ear defenders, and electrical protection systems.

Join Matthew Judson from JSP Ltd to learn more about how these changes will impact your PPE selection, compliance requirements, and the practical steps you can take.
