TECHNOLOGY

The research behind the product

Everyday Safety

Our hats and headbands look like ordinary headgear. They are comfortable to wear and are kind to both the skin and the environment. They also provide good protection against falls and blows to the head.

Whether it is children playing and exploring or adults moving during everyday activities, fall injuries can sometimes be difficult to avoid. Statistics show that 37 million people worldwide seek medical care every year due to fall injuries.

Our hats and headbands effectively cushion falls and blows to the head, so you can live as usual, but much safer. 

OICAN's technology

Our headwear is designed in a unique combination of research and technology – a collaboration between innovators, leading material experts, designers and engineers that has resulted in a unique protective material. All products are tested at RISE and show good attenuation. At the same time, it is so thin that it can be integrated into “regular” hats without affecting the appearance.

SAFEHAT - More than just a hat

Safe Hat is carefully designed to provide the highest level of protection, while being comfortable and looking good. The protective material is placed on the most exposed parts of the head - the forehead and the back of the head - to offer extra security in everyday life.

Our protection is designed to fit perfectly on the head and is thickest where it is needed most, to provide the best possible protection. And you can be sure that the hat fits comfortably without affecting your hearing, as the area around the ears is freed.

We would like to remind everyone that our hat is not intended as a replacement for a helmet during activities with a higher risk of injury, such as cycling or skiing. However, we are confident that it will become a favorite for everyday activities.

THE MATERIAL

About our protection

We are happy to share our brand new material that is created with both children and the environment in mind. Traditional plastic materials used to make shelters can sometimes contain chemicals that do not benefit our planet or our children. Therefore, we felt it was time for a change.

Together with experts in materials and design, we have developed a unique material that is both non-toxic and made from food grade components. The material is thin but at the same time effective when it comes to protecting against shocks and bangs.

We would like to remind everyone that our cap is not intended as a replacement for a helmet during activities with a higher risk of injury, such as cycling or skiing. But we are convinced that it will become a favorite among children when it comes to everyday play and adventure.

THE MATERIAL

About our protection

Safety in everyday life

We have developed a protection made from a newly developed material that is created with care for both people and the environment. Traditional plastic materials used to make this kind of protection often contain dangerous chemicals that pose a risk to both people and our planet. That's why we felt it was time for a change.

Together with experts in materials and design, we have developed a unique material that is both non-toxic and made from food-grade components. The material is thin but at the same time effective when it comes to protecting against shocks and impacts.

That's why you should choose OICAN

Tested at RISE

Throughout the development work, we have carried out continuous tests of the materials at RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden). The materials have mainly been tested against standard EN 1621-1 (for motorcycle protection) and EN 812 (for impact protection caps). As there is currently no representative standard developed for everyday protection, the aforementioned standards have been used to be able to compare the damping function between different materials.

Non-toxic

The protective systems inside the hats consist of a newly developed material that has the same raw materials that are usually used in toys and medical devices. All raw material components are food-grade, i.e. non-toxic. The fabrics are OEKO-tex certified and all cotton fabrics are GOTS certified and contain no harmful substances that can irritate the skin.

Swedish made

OICAN's products are manufactured in Sweden to minimize transport distances and have better control throughout the production chain. This makes it easier for us to ensure the quality of the products and the suppliers' sustainability work.

Kind to the environment

The OICAN Safe Hat is manufactured with low CO2 emissions and the protective material is 100% reusable. When the cap is no longer to be used, the protective material can be melted down and recast with equally good cushioning properties. In this way, we save on both the environment and waste.

Certified

The material is certified according to EU directive 2016/425, risk category 1. Read more about this here.
