‘Xenon 5

Working together

JSP has added the new InterEX and
InterGP helmet-mounted hearing
protection ranges to its integrated
PPE collection. Compliant with
EN352-3:2002, the ear defenders do
not compromise the head protection
provided by the operative’s helmet, as
both are designed to fit and work
seamlessly together with no loss of
protection to either ears or head.

Integrated PPE

Centurion’s new lightweight
Spectrum helmet is said to provide
impressive impact protection for
integrated over spectacles and contain
the largest front logo area of any

AquaDirect allows rain to flow down

Grade B integrated over spectacles
allow the use of prescription eyewear
underneath.

introduce Sync stereo earmuffs from
Howard Leight at Health & Safety

level of hearing protection in
hazardous noise environments along
with high-fidelity stereo sound from
