Ulbrichts unveils VPAM-6 first combat helmet in the world

Ulbrichts Protection presents the first stand-alone helmet capable of stopping Kalashnikov 7.62x39 steel-core (MSC) ammunition (VPAM-6) and reducing impacts to below the fatal level of 25 joules analog to HVN 2009. The Austrian company achieves this breakthrough, opening up a new era in ballistic protective helmets with true protection against rifles: Ulbrichts Protection presents its new Rifle helmet family.To get more news about Hard Armor Plates, you can visit bulletproofboxs.com official website.
To sum up, Ulbrichts proposes two main types of helmets. The first one is dedicated to ‘’first responders’’ of police and other security forces being the first called to react in case of a violent attack; its standard resistance (VPAM-3 HVN 2009) against 9mm can be enhanced with a front shield added to the helmet which then offers true protection against 7.62x39mm steel core, and .223/5.56mm bullets (stopping and trauma prevention 25 Joules) as well as stopping also 7,62x52 / .308 / M80 / NIJII. The second type is a ‘’stand-alone’’ VPAM-6 rifle helmet, able to resist 7.62x39 steel core rounds fired by a Kalashnikov and other here above-mentioned calibers without needing an added front shield.
This is precisely the technological breakthrough achieved by Ulbrichts, hence its qualification of unique provider of a ‘’true protection’’.

It does not only stop the bullet, but it also reduces the kinetic energy below the fatal 25 joules level, so preventing such a back-face deformation of the helmet that would cause a fatal trauma. As demonstrated by laboratory tests, an impact would only cause a ‘’serious headache’’, no severe injury leading to death.

So, Ulbrichts’ stand-alone rifle helmet is the only one on the market, that truly protects its bearer from Kalashnikov 7.62x39 MSC (VPAM 6) fire, the most common weapon used by terrorists and other violent offenders with trauma values below 25 Joulesand stops NATO caliber 7,62x52 (.308 / M80 / NIJ III) as well.
Offering the right head protection for every unit and every use: is the aim of Ulbrichts Protection.
The three-helmet series “Zenturio” for special units (Ulbrichts has already been supplying numerous police units in Europe for decades), “Hoplit” for patrol officers / first responders, and “Optio” for riot police set standards in their respective segments.

At Milipol, the leading event for homeland security and safety, which took place in Paris from 19 to 22 November, the company was showcasing a whole range of pioneering innovations and thus underlining its position as the European market and technology leader.

New hybrid helmet: effective VPAM 3 protection and stopping effect against handgun and rifle fire

Ulbrichts Protection combines titanium, polyethylene (PE), and other high technology materials– so-called titanium-hybrid - for the first time in the next generation of helmets. The new hybrids offer comprehensive protection against different types of threats.

They provide effective and true protection against bullets by test level 3 of the VPAM (VPAM = Vereinigung der Prüfstellen für angriffshemmende Materialien und Konstruktionen / Association of Test Centres for Impact-Resistant Materials and Structures; VPAM 3, 9 mm x 19 DM 41, by the European guideline HVN 2009, residual energy values below 25 joules).
